I know this stuff happens....

Indeed it does. I used to do editorial layout at a small-town newspaper, and would often get articles and photo layouts that had not yet been given a headline by the editor. So, I would enter a "filler" headline, which the editor would replace before sending off the print plant. One time, however, we ended up getting behind and the editor got in a hurry, and did not notice what I had put in. And neither did anyone at the print plant... until the papers had already been sent out for delivery. Here is what our customers found when they opened their paper (names hidden to protect the, um. guilty)...

Needless to say, there were some profuse apologies published in the next edition, and our process was improved.

I've always wanted to run a weekly paper....

Ah, the joys of small-town newspapers...

I was a columnist for a small-town newspaper for a couple of years, and I can't begin to count the number of times the "editor" inserted spelling and grammar mistakes into my column. My favorite experience, though, was opening a copy of the paper and seeing this headline:

AFTER FATAL BEATING, SUSPECT COMMITS SUICIDE

Yep, after a fatal beating some guys just lose the will to live...

Some kinda headline goes here

Hey, I kinda like it.

[stands2reason]

ROFL!!!

LOL, Still, "Some kinda headline" does seem slightly better than "Sing a ling a ding dong," if I do say so.
Our paper got in trouble once for a story on a city commission candidate who murdered his homosexual lover before the election. It was a shock to the whole small, conservative community by itself, but when the headline accidently included the word "homocide" it was even worse.
