    I enjoy imagining the quiet satisfaction of the headline writer when he nails one.

    Whoever writes the headlines for the New York Post has just been killing it lately. This is following up on the Petraeus-Broadwell headline, “Cloak and Shag Her”.

    They’re good, but the headline writers at their British sister paper, The Sun, are better. When the car of F1 driver Pedro Diniz caught fire (he escaped unharmed) their headline read, “DINIZ IN THE OVEN.”

    This is pretty much all the Post is good for, but they are good at it.
