African Newspaper Headlines
PM (newspaper), founded 1940, was a tabloid size New York City daily newspaper, and included many top artists and writers on its staff. It was innovative and created new frontiers in journalism. PM was published by Ralph Ingersoll from June 1940 to June 1948 and bankrolled by the eccentric Chicago millionaire Marshall Field III.
There were accusations that the paper was Communist-dominated, but a thesis by Anya Schiffrin concluded that the paper frequently opposed the policies of the Communist Party and got into editorial fights with the CP's paper, the Daily Worker. |

Ironing Your Newspaper? |
Many butlers and 5 star hotels still practice this age old tradition. Not only does it eliminate creases and make the paper crisp and easier to read, but the hot iron drys the ink so the reader does not end up with dark smudged fingertips.

Headlines
The headline is the text at the top of a newspaper article, indicating the nature of the article below it.
The large type front page headline did not come into use until the late 19th century when increased competition between newspapers led to the use of attention-getting headlines.
It is sometimes termed a news hed, a deliberate misspelling that dates from production flow during hot type days, to notify the composing room that a written note from an editor concerned a headline and should not be set in type.
A headline's purpose is to quickly and briefly draw attention to the story. It is generally written by a copy editor, but may also be written by the writer, the page layout designer, or other editors. The most important story on the front page above the fold may have a larger headline if the story is unusually important. The New York Times's 21 July 1969 front page stated, for example, that "MEN WALK ON MOON", with the four words in gigantic size spread from the left to right edges of the page...
