100 Of The Best Headlines Ever Written By Richard Simmons Just pick up any newspaper and what's the first thing that attracts your attention? It's the headline. The same applies to the front cover of magazines. Recently a headline on a well known women's magazine caught my eye. It said '8 ways to know if your man is cheating on you.' If I was a woman I would certainly want to read it. Wouldn't you ? It's no secret that editors have known this. Usually headlines incorporate on of the following , sex, violence, killing etc..
