New York Post No Better Than Weekly World News

Many years ago, The New York Post had arguably it's most tasteless headline, when reporting of a decapitated body discovered in a gentlemen's night club. HEADLESS BODY IN TOPLESS BAR.

Well, it took almost 30 years, but the now Rupert Murdoch owned Post has topped itself in the crassness department. On the heels of famed Spanish matador Julio Aparicio being gored in the throat, the Post thought it appropriate to lead with this front page. [Warning: Graphic Content]

ADDING... Don't get me wrong. I'm the first to go for the gallows humor, but the inclusion of the picture is a bit much. You never know what little kid is going to pass by a newsstand and flip out.
