    It is gratifying, however, that last Thursday is, in addition to the day of Hogan’s death, the 10th anniversary of the National Enquirer’s publishing audio of Hogan going on an n-word-laden tirade.

    Interesting that the national enquirer was breaking news and informing people about who somebody truly is. I wonder what other information they held 10 years ago that we never found out about. 🤔

      Ask Trump. He and The Enquirer had a long relationship of “catch and kill” for stories detrimental to Trump.

      It smells a lot like extortion.

      Not directly relevant, but back in the '80s two of my cousins grew up in Lantana FL, where the National Enquirer used to have its headquarters. Hilariously, the Enquirer sponsored a little league baseball team there and my two cousins were on the team. It was always weird to see them with their National Enquirer baseball jerseys on.
