Annoyed with all the click-baiting on Huffington Post? @HuffPoSpoilers has got you covered. This is one of the more genuinely useful gimmick accounts we’ve come across; it’s been around since August but just seems to be gaining traction today (its follower count was around 1k this morning; now it’s over 5k). To their credit, the folks at Huffington Post are being good sports about it. source
Surely this New York Post cover isn’t as unapologetically appalling as the NYC subway snuff film that graced the cover eight days ago, and this won’t get the same instinctual rebuke that cover did. But what’s up at the Post? When did they become Faces of Death? Go back to sex sells — this is ugly.
The New York Post: You hear about the deaths we were unable to stop, twelve hours after they happen. Seriously, WTF guys?
One of the papers that’s shrinking, the Mobile, Alabama Press-Register, had an, um, unusual take on the paper losing four of its daily editions. Our pal Charles Apple took a little time to poke fun at the crazy amount of spin happening in this headline.
This week’s cover might feel a little familiar.
The latest issue of TIME (on the right) hits newsstands Friday. Its predecessor (on the left) was released last month.
Sorry, we’re not impressed because of the lack of absolute symmetry.
Sometimes a Crease Creates a Headline Wrinkle

If only it were so. A crease in the paper obscured an ever important “F” in the headline.

Our favorite newspaper foul-up since this one.
Award for dumbest headline of the year goes to ABC News
This one’s pretty bad too, though.
That click yielded an unexpected result.
WSJ Heddesk win.
This is the headline we want on our obituary.
