THIS PUBLICATION TELLS LIES
The Loudmouth and The Weekly Loudmouth are works of satire, parody, humor, historical reconstruction and creative writing. Unless a page specifically says otherwise, stories presented as news should not be treated as factual news reporting.
Names, quotations, events, organizations, places and circumstances may be fictional, exaggerated, altered, combined, satirized or presented out of context for comic effect. Any resemblance to actual events may be intentional, accidental or somewhere in between.
Historical material on this site includes work originally created beginning in 1985. Some material reflects the language, humor, assumptions and editorial judgment of its original period. Republishing or reconstructing that material does not necessarily constitute a present-day endorsement of every statement, joke or viewpoint contained in it.
Where names or identifying information have been obscured or redacted in surviving source material, this site may preserve those redactions. We do not attempt to reverse historical redactions merely to identify private individuals.
NO PROFESSIONAL ADVICE
Nothing on this site is legal, medical, financial, safety or other professional advice. Do not make consequential decisions based on something you read in a publication whose masthead openly promises to publish "nothing but lies."
ARCHIVAL RECONSTRUCTIONS
Some historical issues have been reconstructed as readable HTML from surviving paper copies or scans. Reasonable efforts are made to preserve the original wording, spelling, punctuation, illustrations and publication dates. Transcription errors, damaged source material and uncertain readings are possible. When available, original facsimiles are retained so readers can compare the reconstruction with the surviving artifact.
EXTERNAL LINKS AND COPYRIGHT
Links to third-party sites are provided for reference or convenience. The Loudmouth does not control those sites and is not responsible for their content, availability, security or privacy practices.
Original Loudmouth text, design elements and artwork remain subject to applicable copyright. Third-party names, trademarks, photographs, quotations and other material remain the property of their respective owners and are used only where permitted by law or appropriate to the historical context.
Bottom line: Read The Loudmouth as satire and history. Verify anything important somewhere considerably more respectable.
