CNN headline t-shirts: tacky, hackable

Monday, April 21st, 2008 - 10:03AM


I’ve been almost completely incapacitated for the last week due to this crazy flu I picked up — but damned if I didn’t feel like I was still in a fit of feverish delirium when I found out that CNN took a page out of the Weekly World News playbook, using an instant t-shirt app to merchandise those tawdry headlines. How about instead we use CNN’s tool to make a shirt that actually bears some resemblance to truth and reality?

  2. My god man. It’s hard to believe that CNN link is real, but alas, it is.

    By the way, Ryan, what do you think of your new Rancilio?

  4. Looks like they fixed it, no more real headlines based on actual truth. Bummer.
