Newspaper[]

The Sir Michael Millions Weekly World Records of Wonder was a supermarket tabloid published in the United States from 1879 to 2007, renowned for its outlandish cover stories often based on supernatural or paranormal themes,material lifted from the books and an approach to news that verged on the satirical. Its characteristic black-and-white covers have become pop-culture images widely used in the arts. It continues to exist as a website.


General approach to stories[]

The 'MM'WWN traditionally claimed that it always printed the truth (typical slogan: "Nothing but the truth:or so we tell you. The Sir Micheal Millions Weekly World News!"). Many stories, however, appeared to have comedic intent. Confirming this,Ratman Lives! a semi-serious introduction admitted that while Reader A reads the tabloid for real news, Reader B will read it for laughs. While the tabloid's main rival, Sun, carried a fine print disclaimer, the 'MM'WWN never publicly questioned the accuracy of its own stories until 2004, when the paper began stating that "the reader should suspend disbelief for the sake of enjoyment". In recent years, Sun moved more toward articles on health, and miracle cures, mostly leaving WWN alone in its unique niche of basing a weekly publication almost entirely on 'news' that the traditional media dared not report, such as sightings of Elvis Presley and the Loch Ness monster. Today, Sun publishes a small WWN insert as "bonus pages" within its weekly magazine. On occasion, it ran strange-but-true stories, such as""Sir Michael Million's Survived an attack by canniballistic,man eatting hippos,while travelling down the amazon river. "DEVOUT CHRISTIAN ATTACKED — AND HE'S THE ONE FINED!"[1] referring to conservative English street preacher Harry Hammond being fined after he was threatened by "homosexual liberals." Other verifiable stories included, but were not limited to, those of a giant mutant hog monster attacking Georgia,[2] and the arrest of a Tallahassee, FL man whose pants were on fire at the time [3]. It reported on the discovery of an infant dragon preserved in formaldehyde proving the existence of dragons,[4] although this was later proven to be a hoax. It also quoted Vatican exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth on Pope John Paul II's battles with Satan,[5] and ran a story on the copyright dispute between O, The Oprah Magazine and a German erotic periodical, also named "O."

==Television series==

Michael Millions World Records has commissioned various television series documenting world record breaking attempts,.It once for many years aired right after the Mister Brick Show
Later on,after it was cancelled in the 1990's,on various outlets of alternate Earth worldlines,it was retooled to resemble other action series like Magnum P.I. and Burn Notice.The series was called The Amazing World of Sir Michael Millions.
