Editor & Publisher has a year in review: 2003's most significant press issues.

Even better? Gawker.com takes E&P to task for some truly terrible puns in the article: Embed, Baath and Beyond. Blair Watch. FCC You Later. Lynching Party.

Let's see if I can develop some catchy media puns in response to this Editor & Publisher's "2003 in review" list... Hmmmm. Hey, how about, "Everyone at Editor & Publisher should be shot in the face for editing and publishing this"?

Crap! Failure! I guess making a long list of horrid puns is harder than it looks.

So here's another reason to avoid bad puns when writing headlines: Smart people will hate you and may even plot your murder. (Or would that be justifiable homicide?)
