What is your favorite example of a newspaper headline gone wrong?

Asked by dkranzberg (534points) November 20th, 2010

Newspaper and internet news headlines can be downright hysterical when they are written in an ambiguous or equivocal way.
What is your favorite example?
Here are a few of mine:
—Cold Wave Linked to Temperatures
—Defendant’s Speech Ends in Long Sentence
—Hershey Bars Protest
—Political Left Waffles on Bill
—Policeman Helps Dog Bite Victim
—Miners Refuse to Work after Death
—Red Tape Holds Up New Bridge
—Teens Make Nutritious Snacks
—City High School Dropouts Cut in Half
—Sex Ed. Delayed, Teachers Request Training
—Denver Voters Approve Urban Renewal By Landslide
—Mayor Swears in Town Council
