Sometimes the papers had crappy headlines. For example one might say "Trolley Strike Drags On". No one wants to pay for a paper that isn't interesting. So the newsies would come up with a headline by finding stories throughout the other pages. So on page 9, there might be a quick story about a trash can on Ellis Island that was on fire, the Newsies might say a terrible inferno on Ellis Island, and lives at stake! This caught the customer's attention and they bought the paper. Again, newsies could overexaggerate the truth, but it got the job done. And all examples of headlines came from the movie, "Newsies"
