It’s from Weekly World News, an old tabloid chalk full of ridiculous stories like this, if you want to find more.
I loved it when I was younger, bought it at the grocery or newspaper stand every issue.
Best part was when I found out people actually believed the crap in it, it was so obviously dumb fake crap but man, people really took it like a newspaper.
I loved those as a kid too. I also assumed nobody really believed “Hillary Clinton gives birth to bat-boy!” but after the last ten years I now realize some portion of their audience were taking it as gospel.
My absolute favorite was not a story in the Weekly World News, but an ad on the back page. It was selling vials of water that could completely remove an evil eye curse “as if it never existed”.
