Bad news is bad. Obviously. But sometimes bad news can be unintentionally hilarious.
Take a look at these brilliant newspaper and magazine fails for example. Compiled by Bored Panda, the list serves as a helpful reminder of why something as simple as a layout could turn even the saddest stories into something you can't help but laugh about.
