A Twist in the Tale...

Newspapers are relied upon to provide us with current news around the world. The first thing we see when we buy a newspaper is its headlines.If your area has more than 1 newspaper, then headlines play a very important role in attracting readers to buy its paper. Coming up with the best headline for that day takes a lot of hard-work and careful planning. But sometimes these professionals who come up with the headlines spend so much time thinking in one direction that they don't count on the headline taking up another meaning on its own. Here are some really hilarious headlines which i have compiled for you.. The actual stories are really a very serious current issue that's effecting the world today.,but like i said if it is read in a totally new light the meaning of the headline can take a hilarious twist in its actual meaning altogether...

Insane Classifieds

We all have used the classifieds at one point of time.Every newspaper has them. Well before Ebay and Craigslist it was the dear old classifeid section in our local newspaper for buying and selling, job searching, service providing, advertisments and even lost and found. If professional writers can make mistakes in their headlines what about us? Sometimes we try to be honest.. too honest in fact or just plain hopeful trying to sell away our hopeless stuffs. Whatever the classified section articles are advertising they too can be hysterical if written by the wrong hands. Take a look at these ads and decide for yourself. Funny people or plain insane.

WE LIVE IN A MAD WORLD!!!!


LOST IN TRANSLATION

Finally the best for the last. This IS ONE OF THE BEST SCREW UPS IN TABLOID HISTORY. When Madonna was promoting her movie Evita she had the misfortune of being interviewed by Blikk a Hungarian national newspaper. The questions were posed in Hungarian, then translated into English for Madonna, whose replies were then translated back into Hungarian for the paper's exclusive. Soon after, at the request of USA Today, Madonna's comments were then retranslated fom Hungarian back into English for the benefit of that papers readers. Well after getting translated then retranslated then translated then retranslated back again, i wonder what Madonna might have thought after reading her special exclusive interview to the good people of Hungary as she put it. You see and judge for yoursefl.


MADONNA

Blikk: Madonna, Budapest says hello with arms that are spread-eagled. Did you have a visit here that was agreeable? Are you in good odor? You are the biggest fan of our young people who hear your musical productions and like to move their bodies in response.

Madonna: Thank you for saying these compliments [holds up hands]. Please stop with taking sensationalist photographs until I have removed my garments for all to see [laughs]. This is a joke I have made.

Blikk: Madonna, let's cut toward the hunt: Are you a bold hussy-woman that feasts on men who are tops?

Madonna: Yes, yes, this is certainly something that brings to the surface my longings. In America it is not considered to be mentally ill when a woman advances on her prey in a discothèque setting with hardy cocktails present. And there is a more normal attitude toward leather play-toys that also makes my day.

Blikk: Is this how you met Carlos, your love-servant who is reputed? Did you know he was heaven-sent right off the stick? Or were you dating many other people in your bed at the same time?

Madonna: No, he was the only one I was dating in my bed then, so it is a scientific fact that the baby was made in my womb us­ing him. But as regards these questions, enough! I am a woman and not a test-mouse! Carlos is an everyday person who is in the orbit of a star who is being muscle-trained by him, not a sex machine.


Blikk: May we talk about your other "baby", your movie, then? Please do not be denying that the similarities between you and the real Evita are grounded in basis. Power, money, tasty food, Grammys - all these elements are afoot.

Madonna: What is up in the air with you? Evita never was winning a Grammy!

Blikk: Perhaps not. But as to your film, in trying to bring your reputation along a rocky road, can you make people forget the bad explosions of Who'sThat Girl? and Shanghai Surprise?

Madonna: I am a tip-top starlet. That is my job that I am paid to do.

Blikk: O.K., here's a question from left space: What was your book Slut about?

Madonna: It was called Sex, my book.

Blikk: Not in Hungary. Here it was called Slut. How did it come to publish?Were you lovemaking with a man-about-town printer? Do you prefer making suggestive literature to fast-selling CDs?


Madonna: These are different facets to my career highway. I am preferring only to become respected all over the map as a 100% artist.

Blikk: There is much interest in you from this geographic region, so I must ask this final questions: How many Hungarian men have you dated in bed? Are they No. 1? How are they comparing to Argentine men, who are famous for being tip-top as well?

Madonna: Well, to avoid aggravating global tension, I would say it's a tie [laughs]. No, no, I am serious now. See here, I am working like a canine all the way around the clock! I have been too busy even to try the goulash that makes your country one for the record books.

Blikk: Thank you for your candid chitchat.

Madonna: No problem, friend who is a girl.
