Jacob Two-Two: Jacob Two-Two and the Daily Crown

SYNOPSIS

A new newspaper becomes an overnight success in Montreal, but Jacob is suspicious. The paper is poorly written gibberish, and yet all the grownups in town subscribing to it and are spending all their money on the useless products advertised in it. Jacob and Buford become paperboys to infiltrate the Daily Crown headquarters, coming face to face with its eccentric founder, Carl Fester King. Learning that the paper's ink does indeed contain a brainwashing chemical, Jacob uses King's own newspaper to reveal his con-game to the entire city.
