We true Bostonians do not want to admit this but there is a reason the New York Post can be found at almost every newsstand in the city.
We love it.
I know that it's often poorly written, hypocritical, and flat-out racist, but the Post is complete fun in the morning. I can't live without it.
The NY Post has now published a book that contains what they consider their best headlines.
What else could they choose for a title but the most infamous headline of all
The paper is also having an online vote so readers can select their favorite.
My favorite Post headline didn't make the cut. When sports announcer Marv Albert was fired a decade ago after a sex scandal the post headline was
MARV GETS A PINK SLIP
Our feisty tabloid the Herald has tried at times to be a Boston version of the Post but it just doesn't work here. Former NY Post editor Ken Chandler found that out the hard way when he approved the worst front page in Boston history after the death of Victoria Snelgrove outside Fenway Park in 2004.
