Their mission statement is as follows: "TRUTHSHRIEKER MAGAZINES is committed to pulling back the curtain to reveal the TRUE STORIES the governo-industri-scientifical complex is hiding from us all. From Sasquatch to ESP, Flying Saucers to that weird growth on your eyeball, TRUTHSHRIEKER digs up all the facts, blows away all the smokescreens, and screams the truth into the face of the world." They were introduced in Issue 0: TruthShrieker, which came in the form of one of their magazines. Dib had been submitting information to them in lieu of the Swollen Eyeballs, ever since Zim had disappeared.
