News Cruise: Everything you need to know today
The trend toward brevity in the newspaper business is getting so ridiculous, pretty soon they'll be giving a Pulitzer Prize for Best Verb. But since Americans don't like to read anyway, maybe it's best that we just give the headlines and that'll be enough, right? (For some, it'll be too much.)
So here's everything you need to know today, but just the headlines:
"Big Mac turns 40 today ... thousands die"
"George Wallace's would-be assassin gets out of jail ... Wallace still dead"
"UK prison guards must knock before entering cells ... inmates only want respect"
"Oops! China hunts for 'missing' 17 pounds of uranium ... gets 'warmer' near Pakistan"
"U.S. bombs Brits in Afghanistan ... when you have friends like us, who needs the Taliban?"
"Nicole Richie does hard time ... in 82 minutes"
"Hey, Mom, my Xbox is smoking"
"[FILL IN THE BLANK]
