Man Bites Dog

What do you think 

of this one?

What is your opinion?

😒🙁😐🙂😃

Good headline

The headline shows a clear news value.

The unusual use of  the words  Man Bites Dog helps to capture the attention of the audience.

It is unusual because it goes against the grain of what we normally expect.  Namely, Dog Bites Man.

What would be your press release headline?
