Thesis: Hitler escaped to Indonesia.
Claim: Hitler's body was missing from his bunker when he supposedly committed suicide.
Evidence: An Indonesian Airline manager has released photos of documents proving that Hitler became a citizen of Indonesia.
Comment: I think this article is very interesting and well developed for the audience that it is targeting. It has an interesting premise and some proof, though not very solid, which is what it's going for with the target audience.

Thesis: An Indonesian man, Budi Budiman, can communicate with Satan.
Claim: Satan specifically told him to not reveal anything about their conversations, or else he will take everything that is dear to Budi.
Evidence: The man dreamt of Satan once, which led him to be able to communicate regularly with him.
Comment: This article is very short and concise, which I think is good for the kind of audience it is targeting, as it also provides barely any evidence to support the claims. The content of the article is just right for the type of people who read these kinds of articles.

Thesis: Bigfoot is the missing link in human evolution.
Claim: Scientists have been interested in bigfoot due to the holes in Darwin's evolution theory.
Evidence: Scientists have found a piece of hair that is linked to bigfoot, and they are currently still trying to find bigfoot.
Comment: Bigfoot is a topic that has been discussed for a long time, so the fact that the article doesn't even stop to consider if bigfoot is real or not is good. It just goes straight into it basically claiming that bigfoot is real and scientists are trying to find it.
