I don't really want Berlusconi, Strauss-Kahn and Casey Anthony to die. (Wait, I'm not under oath, am I?)
Great read! Love this kind of stuff, keep it going!!!!
You are definitely on a roll. Don't stop the drugs! -R-
This is the funniest thing I've read in quite a while...Oh how I wish most of these headlines were true! Especially liked the picture brought to mind of Santorum in the Horny Pecker.
It's not even Good News Sunday yet, must be because that would create power outages of its own. This is the best news ever, and I think I want you to be my PR agent when I decide I need a national tour.
I honestly think you should replace Herman Cain..:)
HUGGGGGGGGG
Anne Coulter reminds me more of a stringy chicken leg, and the Horny pecker is straight friendly, Mr. Thing.

Othwises, this is fabulous. I have often wanted to open a website that reports real shadenfreude. I foresaw a section for celebrities and then where there a fee for investigating and finding out any fresh shadenfreude that exist for your foes.
Meant to write "Otherwise,"

Also, great font for the header, there. I would like to go into business with you, sir.
OMG Richard u r sososo mean to Casey!


r.
I chuckled all the way throug, then guffawed when I read about the 11th letter disappearing! Brilliant. Thank you!
Hahahahahaha! How do you do this over and over and over again?

Lezlie
No, not Carrot Top! (Personally, I would much rather that Gilbert Gottfried lose his voice, but perhaps that's just me.) :-)
I so needed that this morning, thanks Crank!!!

I think this should be a weekly report. So funny. I loved the weather report...that is exactly the weather in my case.
I searched your tags thoroughly for the word "fiction" or "satire." Find neither, I'm going to log off and turn on the TV.
Isn't your scenario with the Colts pretty much what we saw with another Stanford quarterback years ago?

This was a lot of fun.
You wish! All of it!

(Me too.)

Giggle!
Very funny, and you forgot Herman's a perfect gentleman and I'm a not unattractive woman, who's never met him.
im ardashian caused a new form of hlymidia in ansas.
Dude, this is SOOOO funny! Thank you, thank you...
R+++
"Congress Eliminates own salaries" is my favorite, followed closely by Berlusconi and Strauss-Kahn Murder suicide. =o)

Keep the hits coming, Cranky!
It must be heaven! No, it's Schadenfreude News, whatever that is. What ever it is is very funny!
LOVE the name of your "news site." LOL What is it about human nature that gave rise to schadenfreude in the first place, and why can't we find an adequate word in English to convey the same emotion?
Dear Cranky, I kick you in the nuts and laugh!! HAHAHA!! :D

Congrats on winning the writer's challenge and getting EPed!! You da best!! (At what? I hear your wife yelling, tell her I have no clue, but you're the best!!!! :D)
Hee hee! (Picturing Donald Trump's hair - and love im ardashian.)
Still grinning. You definitely have a knack. Keep it coming. R
@chicken maaaaaan

Emily added the word "satire" right above this on the cover... just for you!
I like this parallel universe Cranky. Where can I get a subscription?
You killed with this, Killed~~
oh cranky, how i wish you were right about Luck returning to stanford for one more season...
This totally illed me. More! More! RRRR
Funny! Witty! And far more credible than O'Reilly, Hannity, Kelly, et.al. Eat your hearts out Rupert and Roger! ...yes literally eat your hearts out....
Really enjoyed reading this. FUN.
News this tasty should cost more than 50 cents.
hilarious...hilarious...hilarious....loved it!
My favorites:
Rick Santorum (it's only a matter of time).
im ardashian
Cutthroat businessman finish first.

Perfection!
your mind is so warped. Love that about you.


Sharon
This is a really cool format. And I especially like the idea of "K" going missing for a while. If it could stop those Khardashians....if only it could.....
I second the vote for a weekly edition! I'm afraid that you will never run out of material - this was a bright spot in the week!
Still laughing out loud. Thanks Cranky. So welcome after a day at the office.
humanity will always provide Cranky with new material, that's our job!
I'm going to bookmark this and come back in 6 mos. to see which ones came true.
hilarious, cranky. i vote for a regular series too. love im ardashian. brilliant.
