Newspaper's Poor Advice for Readers Blamed on Art-Director Fail What does this headline say, exactly?
Today's cover of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's Living section suggests that you shit yourself. This unintentional message is the result of a poor graphic effect applied to the headline "Suit Yourself," or perhaps it's just a crappy font choice. Of course, given that newspapers have less and less staff to check these things, we might blame it on the demise of news rags in our increasingly digital nation. But whoever we want to blame, I can't wait to see the correction they run. Via Gawker.
