The World Headline News has faced significant challenges over its 30+ years of publication. Among these issues have been contentious labor union negotiations (Ned's wife insists he take out the garbage), as well as the financial and ecological issues facing traditional print publications. Foremost among these challenges was the global deforestation arising from the HUGE circulation of the WHN. To address the deforestation issue, the WHN has transitioned to the dangerous, but paper-free, world of the “internet” in 2013.
Look for new 'electron rich' articles to appear semi-regularly...
... but only after Ned takes out the garbage.
The World Headline News was established by Ned Ander-Thal * on January 30, 1993 in Oakland, California, USA. Within months of its founding, the paper was forced to flee California and found a temporary safe haven in Albany, New York, USA. However, subsequent hard hitting WHN Editorials in 'Albania' resulted in the flight of the ‘newspaper’, and its founding family, to
Surrey, BC (! CANADA !) in 2002.
Canadians, eh, being so nice, have found it difficult to insist (ask yes, insist no) that the WHN go back to whence it came. We plan to continue to abuse this Canadian hospitality and to eat the honey dip Timbits®...
About the
