Local newspapers are often mocked for their parochialism. Take, for example, the Have I Got News For You 'missing word' round where they take absurd headlines from specialist journals. There's also an old, (apocryphal?) story of a headline in a Scottish newspaper on the sinking of the Titanic 'Dundee man dies in shipping incident'.
However, this example beats them all. www.thebody.com welcomes the election of Barack Obama with the headline
Illinois AIDS Advocate Wins Presidency
