5.0 out of 5 stars When I must laugh or else I will cry..., July 31, 2000
By 
This review is from: Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim, and Other Flubs from the Nation's Press (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book, especially for reading aloud. The headlines and other excerpts are works of deathless prose or unintended double-entendres which were *actually printed* by newspapers around the country. Watch for your home town newspaper -- perhaps someone you know thought up the headline "Milk Drinkers Turn to Powder." Well worth the investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Careful!, March 26, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim, and Other Flubs from the Nation's Press (Paperback)
You could hurt yourself laughing! I recommend NOT reading it in a public space as people are sure to think you've gone over the edge. The only thing wrong with it is that it's nearly two decades old. Where are the bloopers from the 80s till now?

4.0 out of 5 stars Unitentionally hilarious, September 27, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim, and Other Flubs from the Nation's Press (Paperback)
This is a tough book to read. That's because you'll be laughing so hard after a few pages that it will be difficult to see through your tears. The title along is a dead giveaway. That's a real headline but also an exquisite double entendre on the old "Man Bites Dog" headline. That gives you a taste of what's inside: an endless series of flubs, mistakes, bad juxtapositions, malapropisms, and more, all taken from daily news headlines. Can't get enough of it!
