My all time favourite was also a tabloid. They had a picture of a woman in a bathing suit diagonally on the front page. Her picture was obviously stretched because the proportions were weird. Anyway, the headline said, "Woman grows two feet overnight. We had to tilt her picture to get it on the page."

I always had a vision in my head of some idiot having bought and read the paper, probably with pictures of buildings or bridges or whatever in it, suddenly sitting bolt upright in bed around 2:00am and saying to himself, "Hey, wait a minute!"

>Best headline I ever saw was years ago on a supermarket tabloid. In big letters, it said, "Photos inside: World's Ugliest Woman". Right next to that, a picture of Tammy Faye Baker, crying, with mascara running down her face.

>>IMO the best headline ever was from the New York Post. It's a rag of a paper, held by greasy fingers on NYC public transit daily, but they seem to be a homeland for crazed headline writers.
