Piecing together the puzzle of our past, one ancestor at a time!
Stupid Headlines

A collection of headlines so stupid or so obvious you may think they are made-up fakes, but I assure you they are for real.  Now you know why we no longer trust the media or the (so-called) experts, for that matter.

As usual, you can click on an image to view a larger version, but if you're expecting to read the fine print, prepare to be disappointed.  The images themselves are not that detailed.  The original intent was to highlight the headlines, not the articles..
