How could ten thousand union strikers battling 1300 Ohio National Guardsmen in hand-to-hand combat in the streets of Toledo NOT be the main headline? What other story could everyone else have been talking about even when two people were killed in the melee? Find out which one on this episode of Top Fold.
Top Fold is dedicated to, "All the news that would have been". What does that mean? That means that on 9/11, or when the Hindenburg exploded, or Elvis Presley died, headlines were replaced and stories fell below the fold. What event happened that was huge but wasn’t talked about because something else monumental took the headlines? The -name of the podcast comes from a combination of "TOP Story" and "Above the FOLD"-TOP FOLD.
Original music by David "Beezer" Wagler.
