Visionaries,
I propose a competition to help the Daily News find other stunning
headlines for hard-hitting news stories. First, they gave a top headline
to a ten-year-old booklet and a nonexistent conference. Then, this
weekend the Daily News overturned the reporting world by actually
finding =93top scholars=94 who disagree with a local pastor. Omigosh.
Here are the rules for the competition:
1. The headline must match the editorial standards of a real DN
headline.
2. Only one entry per Vision 2020 email, unless you have others that
can=92t wait.
3. Use quotation marks to distinguish them from nonheadline material.
4. Introduce headline proposal with the line: Moscow-Pullman Daily News
Breaking Headline --
5. Don=92t claim copyright for your headlines, so the DN can plug them
right in.

Here are some proposals for newsbreaking Daily News headlines, not
admissible in the official competition:
Moscow-Pullman Daily News Breaking Headlines --
"Richard Nixon was Once President of the United States"
"Winco Shopping Cart Misplaced"
"Top Muslim Scholars Reject Christianity"
"Investigation Shows No Olympic Games Scheduled This Weekend"
=20
Let the competition begin,
Doug Jones
