From way back in the early '80's: Protestors would stand in front of the "White Trains" that were supected of moving nuclear weapons. One of the protestors was determined to be a martyr to the cause, and the headline the next day was,
"Protestor Who Lost Legs Vows to Continue Arms Fight" True. |

Brit tabloid The Sun has had a few good ones over the years, my favourite two would be:
"Up Yours Delors" (Above an article to do with the paper's anti EU stance: refers to the then head of the European Commission Jacques Delors) and "Super Caley Go Ballistic, Celtic Are Atrocious" (After minor Scottish football (o.k, soccer  ) team Inverness Caledonian beat the (relatively) famous Glasgow Celtic in a cup match.
