The Headline Game – 2/14/07
Real life or parody? Sometimes, I can’t tell the difference anymore. That’s when it’s time for the Headline Game.
Below are two headlines from CNN.com and two headlines from The Onion. Can you spot which are the real headlines and which are the fakes?
1. Apple hard at work making iPhone obsolete
2. Group wants bus drivers to hang up their phones
3. Sharks kill four people in “dull” year
4. Westminster Dog Show finalists form elite Iditarod team
Note: CNN headlines taken from front page of CNN.com; headline of actual story may differ. Capitalization on the Onion headlines changed to match CNN.
Answers: Story 1, Story 2, Story 3, Story 4
How did you do?

Cool.
I thought people might switch the Apple headline for the Shark headline.
