Winning headlines

We200707111d_2Each month, members of the newsroom vote on their favorite headlines of the past month. Here are the winners for July (Yep, we’re a little behind).

In first place is this headline by senior journalist/designer Rod Pocowatchit.

Totes of the town

This gem was with a story about the latest tote bags for summer.

Second place was a tie.

One was by Features editor Lori Linenberger:

Lost Causes

This appeared with a story about those who are permanently, hopelessly directionally challenged.

The other second place went to deputy desk chief Lisa McLendon.

PepsiCo makes it clear:
Bottled water’s from tap

About, well, the headline tells you everything.

Third place went to Sports copy editor/online producer Josh Woods.

Venus rising

This was above a story about Venus Williams’ Wimbledon win over Maria Sharapova.

See an Eagle headline you like or think is noteworthy? Drop me a line.

    Interesting headline in today’s (9/19) paper about the man who died in his garage. The headline said he died of C02 poisoning, yet the story went on to say carbon monoxide poisoning. CO2 is carbon DIoxide, not MONoxide.

    No chemists working at the Eagle?
