Newspage go!

 


Because you didn't ask for it, the return of the feature that shares each newspage's stupidest headline story!  Today we have:

FoxNews

'Get over this,' man tells 'picky' date with food allergies who rejected his dinner

This might be a headline story for The Joe's Diner Review, but a serious news story? Kinda fits into the "get to know someone first" category.  Better headline:  "Insensitive lout wears dinner for two".


BBC

Viral videos claim luxury bags are made in China, is it true?

Better headline:  "BBC credibility so low, looking into viral videos as news sources, is it true?"  Please tell me that "luxury" items being made on the cheap in China isn't a surprise.

BBC, also receiving votes

French jails have come under attack. Are violent drug gangs to blame?

No, I'm sure it's those darn jaywalkers (marcheurs) and Marine Le Pen....


Moscow Times

This one is more of an "answer your own question" item.  Headline one:

I Trained With Russian Diplomats. I Can Tell You How They Work

Followed by:

Russian Politician Admits He’s Been Working Remotely From Ukraine Since 2021

There you go- they work remotely from Ukraine...


Xinhua

Now China's state news commonly posts stories about schoolchildren greeting someone or some flower celebration, but that doesn't catch the true spirit of Xinhua- as the diary of Xi the Pooh.  And so I give you:

Xi says unilateralism, hegemonism receive no support of the people

Which in addition to being against every principle Xi actually lives by, probably 70% of the Chinese populace don't even know what the two words mean...

Video reveals gross act Katy did in space

Katy of course being Katy Perry during her all-girl trip into space last week.  What was that gross act?  I went through the whole article and the closest thing I saw to a 'gross act" was kissing the ground after they landed.  Sorry, fans of booger-picking out there...


Times Of India

Suryakumar Yadev checks Abhishek Sharma's Pocket for a Note


That smile makes me wonder what kind of note he was looking for...


And finally...

The Copenhagen Post

Danish PM enjoying an European kind of Trump Bump



Of course the first thing I thought was, "She doesn't LOOK pregnant..."

  1. Those French jails? I think it has something to do with mimes. If it doesn't, it ought to.
