Glad someone agrees. Adding not news tag. Neebs 22:31, 29 August 2006 (UTC) Also, local or global, Bush is mocked all the time. Why should this have an article? Neebs 22:32, 29 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Wikinews *does* cover humorous stories; see Category:Wackynews. We also cover local news which may not be relevant for national or international audiences. By these standards, yes this would qualify as a news story. - Amgine | m | en.WN 22:51, 29 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

This news item is currently the second most read story on news.bbc.co.uk. [1] I think it therefore quite indisputably qualifies as 'newsworthy'. will try to remove the tag. boo 23:13, 29 August 2006 (UTC) tag is gone already and the story re-published. good. boo 23:19, 29 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

The story has been picked up by BBC News, Reuters and UPI so I think it passes muster as "newsworthy". Crimson 00:30, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yes. This story is totaly newsworthy. I just seen the report on TV. FellowWikiNews (W) 01:14, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
