The judges took great pleasure in making today's Headline of the Day Award to Deutsche Welle for this tale of a vulpine Imelda Marcos.
Thank you to a reader for the nomination.

This won't help his attempt to become head of the World Trade Organisation.
In sheer serendipity, the Deutsche Welle site story has a link to yet another story titled "'Hitler's alligator' that survived Battle of Berlin dies in Moscow"
"An alligator who survived the bombing of Berlin in 1943 and is rumoured to have belonged to Adolf Hitler has died in a Moscow zoo aged 84. "Animals are not involved in wars and politics," the zoo said."
