In Steve Jobs News: National Enquirer Photos and a Big Obama Meeting
By Steven Hoffer - AOL NewsHere is your latest installment of Steve Jobs rumors. The National Enquirer reports that the Apple chief executive, who recently took a leave of absence to focus on his health, has only six weeks to live.

OJ Simpson Beaten? Doubt Cast on National Enquirer Story
By Mary Phillips-Sandy - AOL NewsThe National Enquirer can't let go of the idea that O.J. Simpson is being assaulted and harassed in prison. The rumor made the rounds anew this week, with several media outlets picking up the tabloid's sensational story (headline: O.J. Beaten Unconscious in Brutal Prison Attack!). According to the Enquirer, Simpson was beaten "to a bloody pulp" by fellow inmates at Nevada's Lovelock Correctional Center after a group of white supremacists overheard him bragging about his "sexual conquests of beautiful white women." In 2007, Simpson began serving a nine-year sentence for his alleged ...
Chelsea Clinton in New York, Marc Mezvinsky in Wyoming, Still a 'Very Happy' Couple, Friend Says
By Annie Groer - Politics DailyIs the state of the union of former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky, her husband of barely seven months, solid? "The couple are very happy," a family friend told Politics Daily, in response to questions raised in media reports about why the two are currently living nearly 1,900 miles apart. Clinton, 30, is in Manhattan pursuing her doctorate in public policy at New York University, while Mezvinsky, 34, who recently quit his financial sector job at G3 Capital, is spending a few months skiing and snowboarding in Jackson Hole, Wyo. The National Enquirer cited a "close" ...
Shailey Tripp, Todd Palin, the National Enquirer and a Journalistic Conundrum
By David Knowles - AOL NewsHave you heard the news reports? Todd Palin, the husband of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, is said to have been caught having an affair with Shailey Tripp, a 36-year-old massage therapist turned prostitution house madam. The problem with the allegations? They come to the world via the National Enquirer. Yes, that would be the same tabloid that first brought the world news of John Edwards' affair with Rielle Hunter, as well as photos of Edwards holding his love child. That coverage even landed the paper, which often pays its sources for information, a Pulitzer Prize nomination. Here, then, ...
John Edwards Engagement: 5 Reasons the Rumor Spread So Quickly
By Yelena Shuster - AOL NewsJohn Edwards, the man who was once considered a top presidential candidate, now seems relegated to a new role as fodder for tabloids and gossip. On Wednesday, less than a month after Edwards' estranged wife, Elizabeth, died from breast cancer, the National Enquirer ran a story suggesting that Edwards had proposed to his mistress and the mother of his love child, Rielle Hunter. Several reputable news organizations ran with the news, albeit with requisite disclaimers about the suspect nature of the Enquirer's journalistic integrity. While neither Edwards nor Hunter has personally denied the ...
Report: John Edwards Proposes to Rielle Hunter
By not in system - AOL NewsJohn Edwards has proposed to his mistress Rielle Hunter, The National Enquirer reported Thursday. A source told the tabloid that the disgraced former senator asked Hunter to marry him shortly after issuing a statement last year admitting that he was the father of her daughter, Frances Quinn. ...
Enquiring Minds Say Mob Financed National Enquirer
By David Moye - AOL News(Sept. 15) -- The National Enquirer has made its name exposing John Edwards' illegitimate child and the Elvis Presley morgue photo, but the real scoop may be how the paper actually got started -- with a $25,000 loan from the Mafia. Back in 1953, Gene Pope purchased The New York Enquirer, a low-selling afternoon newspaper that only did well on Sundays because it was the first with the late-night Saturday sports scores, and turned it into the National Enquirer, a publication that changed journalism as we know it. Juan Monino Paul David Pope, son of National Enquirer pioneer Gene Pope, wants ...
Mel Gibson as Metaphor for What Ails America
By Delia Lloyd - Politics DailyOK. Here's my guilty summer confession: I can't get enough of the Mel Gibson scandal. Let me preface this post by saying that I'm hardly one for celebrity gossip. I have no idea who Justin Bieber is. I don't care whether Jennifer Aniston wants kids or not. And despite former Politics Daily colleague Emily Miller's compelling argument for why we should all be taking The National Enquirer more seriously, I can't stomach tabloids. Still, when it comes to the ongoing Mel Gibson saga, I can't look away. And I suspect I'm not alone. And that's because Gibson embodies a whole bunch of different ...
Enquirer: Police Investigating 2 More Accusations Against Al Gore
By Carl Franzen - AOL News(July 21) -- Al Gore hasn't had a good summer, and a new report could make it worse -- doubly so. According to The National Enquirer, police are investigating the claims of two more massage therapists who say that Gore sexually abused them in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The former incident is said to have taken place when Gore was staying at a Beverly Hills hotel ahead of the 79th Academy Awards ceremony; the latter has been traced to Tokyo. Both would have occurred while Gore was married. Last month, the Enquirer broke the news that police had investigated, dismissed, then recently ...
Al Gore as Allegory: Nothing in Moderation
By Melinda Henneberger - Politics DailyAl Gore, Nobel Laureate and alleged "crazed sex poodle" has surely consulted an astrologer at some point in his highly eventful 62 years, and if she was any good at all she told him, "You have quite an unusual chart here, Senator. No, really." He's been up, down, out and then in, denied the presidency but redeemed . . . by Hollywood, where he'd never before been beloved. Perhaps most improbably, after being mocked throughout his life as too beige, too careful, and all too maddeningly perfect, the guy who as a kid on a field trip approached his teacher and inquired, "Sir, is it the time to be ...
