BREAKING BAD HEADLINES

BREAKING BAD HEADLINES

I'm always looking for bad headlines in newspapers and online, so I did a web search. Here are some of the best (or worst) examples.

Another: Homicide victims rarely talk to police

I HOPE not ... unless a seance was involved.

I won't go into all of them, but I have to mention this one:

You'll notice that #19 is one of the ones I mentioned above.

I used Ecosia for my search (they plant a tree every time you search; that's what they say), but you can Google more bad headlines. Good bad head hunting.
