Rejected Headlines Part III
· Premium · Jun 7, 2023 · BabylonBee.com

All great stories deserve trilogies — The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and (to a severely lesser degree) The Mighty Ducks all stretched into third installments. With that in mind, it's time once again to have a look at some of the headlines our writers slaved over only to suffer shame and dejection by not having them published.

Here is just a small sample of headline pitches that didn't make the cut last week:
