By I have always said that the Korea Times is a tabloid newspaper now and this just proves it:
Extraterrestrial cemetery in Rwanda, Central Africa which is at least 500 years old, was discovered.
According to the Weekly World News, Dr. Hugo Childs, the Swiss anthropologist said, “There must be 200 bodies buried there and not a single one of them is human.”
Dr. Childs and his colleagues reportedly discovered the alien graveyard on a routine survey of the Rwandan jungle.
“Soil and tissue samples indicate the bodies have been in the ground since the 1400s. We’re now trying to figure out where they came from ― and what killed them,” said Dr. Childs.
The creatures themselves were much taller and skinnier than humans and they stood about 7 feet tall. Their heads were larger than the average man’s and they had no mouth, nose or eyes to speak of. [Korea Times via Korea Beat]
How can respectable people like Michael Breen and Andrei Lankov stand having their names attached to a newspaper like this is beyond me?

I assume he found a mass grave from the 1994 genocide, and that the tropical climate has done strange things to the already mutilated bodies. Jackass regardless.

The Weekly World News is basically a parody of a tabloid. None of their stories are based on fact.

I’ve seen worse.
One time, I saw a Korean TV show in which they used Snopes.com as a source for a story, they even showed a screen capture…I went to Snopes and check the page out for myself:

Yup, the producers knew it was bullshit.

They mentioned the boy scout story as if it was fact, when it clearly isn’t.
