Line 115:
* [[Monty Python and the Holy Grail|African or European]]?
** [[Rimshot]]
* [[Worst News Judgment Ever|On the day every other paper reported the assassination of JFK, a local paper's banner headline was "Edlington Man Has Ferret Stolen From Back Garden".]]
* The ''Dundee Courier'' (from the makers of the ''Sunday Post''); when news of the Titanic sinking reached it, its main headline was "Dundee Man Arrested". The Titanic story was a few pages in.
* The ''[[Framley Examiner]]'' - a parody of English local newspapers, based in the fictional town of Framley and its surroundings (with names like Whoft, Effing Sodbury and others) A very British equivalent of ''[[The Onion]]''.
