Extended description

The stories in this book appeared in Morning Satirical News, dedicated to satirizing real and/or imagined events. The offerings here represent a selection of the good, the weird and the utterly insane of investigative reporter Jock Stewart’s news stories and Night Beat columns. Some of the material previously appeared in Worst of Jock Stewart.

Stewart, who refutes charges that he was raised either by alligators or hyenas, believes that modern-day journalism would be going to hell in a hand basket if hand baskets were still readily available. He has chosen to make his stand for old-fashioned reporting at the Junction City Star-Gazer, a newspaper that—while run by fools and buffoons—knows the difference between real news and “stuff that sounds like real news.”

Use of this volume as a doctoral dissertation has not been authorized by the U. S. Department of Education.
