Some of you, at least, know better.[/quote]
Last time I checked, isn't this the same Enquirer that's gotten "stories" right on the nose before? Yes, you're right -- this could be false... but at the same time, if Barker wanted to, he could cash in on a defamation lawsuit against them. I haven't seen news of that yet.

The Enquirer is proud of their reporters and getting the stories straight. Granted, some of their stories do sound ridiculous, but for the most part, their stories are accurate and then the mainstream media picks it up from there. (Swayze and Fawcett are two recent stories)
