Comic-style newspapers that appeal to the working classes and are easily recognisable by page 3. Shit news, columns written by C-list celebrities, everything new is controversial and other shit. Most popular are the sun, the daily star and the mirror.
mind control from Rupert Murdoch and other media-barons.

Get the British tabloid mug.The corollary to Poe's Law. Poe's Law is invoked when a parody of fundamentalism is believable enough that it is taken as a legitimate example. Tabor's Law is invoked when bona fide fundamentalism is so outrageous that it is taken as parody.
I think Answers in Genesis is hilarious. For the longest time, I thought it was a parody site. That's Tabor's Law in action.

Get the Tabor's Law mug.1. Magazine found in the check out line at Wal-Mart for people who have absolutely nothing better to do with their lives but talk about how "celebrities" are stupid and ugly and point out the inadequacies of people in the photos while grunting as they bend over their huge rolls of fat pulling their food stamps out of the purse in the basket of the electronic cart-rascal.
2. Useless pieces of paper stapled together containing text and photos completely irrelevant to my life.

Tabloid Reader: Did you hear about Lindsay Lohan's latest DWI?
Me: Thank you! I'm such a better person for knowing this!

Get the Tabuchi mug.Something that is viewed as forbidden by society’s standards and therefore is rarely talked about openly. Some are less taboo then they were in the past and some are more then ever taboo. And while most have to do with sex, some taboos have to do with food, and others beliefs, and all of them will bring a conversation to a dead stop if you bring them up because these are all things most people do not what to talk about.
Example’s of modern day taboo’s: cannibalism; incest; pedophilia; necrophilia; bestiality; miscegenation; adultery; nudity; masturbation; homosexuality; bisexuality; anal sex; having a fetish;BDSM; pornography; rape; suicide; drug addiction; divorce; depression; death; AIDs; cancer; racism; eating dogs, cats, horses and other pets; eating insects such as weevils and maggots; drinking blood; using certain four letter words; menstruation; religion; one’s political views, and how much money you make.

Some taboos are meant to be broken, other's are best just left alone!
When Kira tried making the conversation more interesing by mentioning some taboo subjects, silence fell and the others quickly changed the subject to real estate.
