Before the internet, magazines, and newspapers are the most popular medium of entertainment, news, and information; however, paper media remains to be relevant today. Although, some layout artists are not doing a great job at their headline and photo placements, that everything does not seem to make sense. Some pages are easily misunderstood, while some are just hilarious fails. This list is just proof of that; thus you have to see them for yourself.
We can’t decide whether this one or the witchcraft headline is worse. What do you think?
Well, announcing their appearance should make arresting them an easy task for the police.
3. Wait, Where Are They Hiding?
Can you imagine people panicking at the thought that 25,000 paedophiles are hiding in their houses? Such a bad layout here.
Maybe going to Rachel’s house for dinner isn’t such a good idea after all. Poor dog, he could be the last survivor.
This newspaper seems to have made a habit out of hiding the first “e” in “where”, right? And it just so happens to be women featured.
Really, what is great about the day when sex offenders have just been released?
This is so confusing- a rapist in pilot training? This is such an unfortunate newspaper cover.
In case you’re wondering, you can play bowling. We know, not a very good advertisement idea.
Is this really a picture accompanying the article? We’re so curious to know what this is all about!
10. Unfortunate Ad Placement
Who would put a Gas Networks ad next to an article about concentration camp survivors? Just distasteful.
Maybe they should be more careful with their covers next time. Queen can’t have been happy about this.
Well, the reflection sounded like a good idea, but in fact it wasn’t so successful.
13. Pancakes To Fight Obesity
These two articles simply shouldn’t be put next to each other. Unless they intend to say pancakes are the cause of obesity.
Yes, it’s supposed to be “newsbite” in case you were wondering. Although there are other interpretations too.
For some weird reason we got really worried the first time we read this headline.
16. Can’t Be Unintentional
We bet this was done in purpose. Guess who isn’t sorry to say goodbye to these senior staff members.
Although one can be pretty sure that the poor guy’s last words were close to “aah”, this layout looks too cynical.
Bad news is bad. This newspaper layout just made it worse.
We used to love these dogs, but in light of this news we might have to reconsider.
Everything about this cover is wrong. Really, what was the editor thinking?
The placement of this advertisement was a terrible mistake. Really, what were they thinking?
That’s probably what the director told the editor the morning after the newspaper was published.
Whatever you do, make sure the holiday you choose doesn’t involve a ship. Don’t ask why.
Another magazine that should be extra careful with their covers. Let’s say this one was a bad idea after all.
Our impression is this was done on purpose. For what reason, no idea.
When the layout really goes bad, then there are no words to discribe it.
Yet another unfortunate layout. Do they even look at the newspapers before publishing them?
Looks like the poor kid’s parents were following some extreme diet that “can make you thin”, maybe too much so.
Who would have thought members of the Royal family of Englanh were witches? We now know thanks to this newspaper- or maybe not.
Wondering what they were planning to do with the dead cats? Apparently cook them.
Terrible as this news is, we couldn’t help giggling a little bit at the photo placed next to it.
One more newspaper fail. Maybe try to be more careful with these things?
This one’s really bad. Although one can tell it wasn’t part of the newspaper, so let’s not blame the editor for once.
Maybe putting a bald guy at the cover of the newspaper wasn’t a very good idea. Still eye-catching though.
When you’re a cyclist and all you want is to cross the world for a good cause and you bump into this in a local newspaper.
We’re wondering, what was it that George saved the pup from? Can’t help looking above their pictures.
Yeah, looks like the kind of reaction someone reading the magazine would have. Still, kind of wrong.
Relax, it’s just champagne- or is it?
Looks like this headline-photo combination could cause some confusion, don’t you think?
This “alphagear” thing seems to attract female attention! This kind of looks intentional to us.
What an unfair thing to do, close a shelter only to open a strip club. Right, it’s just layout fail.
Based on the layout, we can tell the lady should probably visit a doctor.
Self-harming… just for a laugh? This layout is really terrible.
Oh, yes, these definitely look like murderers, maybe in a parallel universe. Again, editors should pay more attention to what they review.
Fassbender knew something would go wrong with this magazine interview. And it did.
46. Weapons That… Turn Your Hair Pink?
In this case the result is really funny- it would be interesting having chemical weapons that the only harm they can cause is making your hair pink.
Okay, so Kate has been accused of witchcraft already, now of extremism, what’s next?
Well, that is not cool. Clearly a mistake.
Could these two cartoon characters really be so violent and dangerous? Well, according to this cover they could.
50. Watch “Where” You Place The Model
This layout looks really inappropriate- be careful when editing your covers, people!
An advertisement about cremation is not the best ad to put beside a news story of a huge fire that devoured a whole building. Jack, no offense, but your ad is really bugging everyone reading the papers.
52. Not probably the best suggestion
The answer to fix homelessness is probably not to mass murder them. Although, as this is just an obvious design mistake, one glance is all it takes to mislead you to the real answer.
Typos failed graphic placements, or inconsiderate captions, this list has it all. Even though some ended up being disturbing, they could still give you a great laugh. Well, we really hope you did.
