No, but it's [sort of] from a CJR book: "Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim and Other Flubs from the Nation's Press" by Columbia Journalism Review, 1980

Co-worker brought it in way back in the early 1980s. The captions for photo setting errors were the funniest. Upside down picture of a state capitol building had "Would cost $X millions to make capitol dome look like this", or a black photo with "Russian vessel departs under cover of darkness".
