A Reporter's Life


Goofed cutline

Many of you may think of it as a photo caption, but in the world of journalism, that descriptive text beneath a photograph is called a cutline.

So I opened the newspaper that landed at my front door this morning, glancing through it as my pancakes cooked, and I got to the third section that's all about entertainment, food and travel. I flipped to the back page and there was a small photo of what appeared to be a building. Beneath it was the text, "Need cutline info please!!!"

at least they didn't run a fake headline that said: "Women still get breast cancer" or "Gary's headlin here and stuff and junk"

(both are real oopses.. even with headline mispelled)

The funny thing is that the photo really did need a cutline. It depicted a low-resolution building of sorts, but that's about it.
