HEADLINES FROM THE WORLD PRESS

November 23rd, 2009 by Fred Stopsky · No Comments

Each day we offer a sample of headlines that appeared in the world press along with our comments.

UK, The Independent: “Cadbury Faces Takeover”
Sounds delicious to me.

New Zealand, New Zealand Herald: “No Charges On Dog Attack On Boy”
I bet there would be charges if the boy attacked the dog!

Sweden, The Local: “Doctors Can Prescribe Culture”
A dose of poetry for me, modern please.

Australia, Brisbane Times: “We’re Corrupt Say Russian Police”
This is what we term “non-news.”

Denmark, Copenhagen Post: “Companies Cut Xmas Presents”
The announcement was made by CEO, Charles Scrooge.

Canada, Toronto Star: “Invitation From Vatican Offensive”
I guess it depends on what was in the invitation.

Australia, The Age: “Wife Poses As Schoolgirl To Catch Husband”
Did she pose physically or just digitally?

Kuwait, Kuwait Times: “Army Races Hogs”
If the hogs win, does that mean they become the Kuwait army?

Turkey, Zaman: “What’s Deal With Sucking Blood?”
You tell me, Count Dracula!
