There is nothing quite as revealing of a time & culture, its concerns, obsessions, nonsense & trivialities, its temper true or twisted, triumphs, tragedies, and all its nature... as its headline news [ever the clearest reflection any culture has of what concerns it most]. And this is the fifth in a satirical series of hilarious eBooks “apparently” exploiting the inability of the writers & editors of today's "Tricky Headlines" to compose clear, unambiguous copy--Puzzlement, amazement, outrage, and the humor of their folly, silliness, injustice, or intent to deceive, along with all the rest of the panorama displaying in our news how it goes with our current world.
Intended for an adult audience (think of these items as comics without the kiddy graphics). Every tome in this continuing collection eminently suitable to be the ideal reading companion for any seated occasion.
DISCLAIMER: Note that my quips are almost exclusively all about the headline and that the news articles themselves are something to be read at your own peril: Only because of the electronic nature of eBooks have I been able to include a [most convenient] search link to the actual news article... exclusively for the sake of those of you with the morbid curiosity (or slow wit) to check out how far-removed my comment is from the headline’s guilty article. But even though I myself have read them, it is not really all that necessary that you put yourself through that too--unless, of course, you wish to find out whether my outrageous make of them might perhaps also be more accurate than you really wanted to know. And, remember I warned you:
"If you don't want me to quip about you, just stay out of the headlines!"
