Glen Woodburn is an unsavory Metropolitan mud racketeering internet blogger.
History
Woodburn was contacted by Lois Lane after her editor Perry White refused to print her story about a mysterious alien who saved her life in the Daily Planet newspaper. She arranged a meeting with Woodburn in a local bar, giving him her story so that her unknown savior would know she was looking for him. Despite questioning her intent Woodburn put her story on his blog website.
Later, in the aftermath of the message General Zod transmitted across the planet, Woodburn siezed the opportunity of panic to earn himself a name by appearing on a television show talking about Lois' story and publicly naming her as his source. This resulted in the FBI arresting her.
