EPISODE 2 Senator Needed Some Space

Would you believe that at one time most powerful senator in the United States was involved in an automobile accident resulting in the death of a young woman -- that wasn't his wife? This had to be on the front pages for days - it wasn't! This episode of Top Fold explores this event and what took it out of the headlines.

Top Fold is dedicated to, "All the news that would have been". What does that mean? That means that on the day JFK was assassinated, the Hindenburg exploded, or Elvis Presley died other news events were on peoples’ minds, in the headlines and on the evening news, but after this event, 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 or top story? The  name of the podcast comes from a combination of "TOP Story" and "Above the FOLD" - TOP FOLD.

Original music by David "Beezer" Wagler
