Boring headline of the year award


She's the most talked-about woman in the world at the moment.

She's on the cover this week of half a dozen magazines, including the US, Asia, and South Pacific editions of 'Time'.

Yet, for all the power, grace, guts, determination and intrigue she offers, Time comes up with the blandest, most understated, insipid and plain boring headline I've seen in years.

They may as well have put 'Story about woman from Alaska'.

Thank God Time's sub-editors aren't writing Palin's speeches!

Next week's headline:
"Article With Words And Punctuation"

Unless Time plan on relaunching this week's article as a novel, I don't see the point of their headline.

Do you think that a similar article about Barack Obama would have a more interesting headline? I'm inclined to believe that it would.
