STOP THE ‘WORLD’
July 9th, 2011 by Clark Humphrey

last News of the World wraparound cover

As mentioned previously here, Rupert Murdoch’s UK Sunday-only tabloid News of the World has printed its final edition. This final wraparound cover says it all. It calls itself “the world’s greatest newspaper” (a title also self-imposed in the past by the Chicago Tribune), while a background montage depicts dozens of screaming scandal headlines that have, and had, nothing to do with news.


And guess what? The last issue just happens to include a (stereotype-heavy) Seattle travel story.
