Juan Antonio Giner writes a fantastic blog about innovations in newspapers. He's the founder of the INNOVATION Media Consulting Group, which does amazing work redesigning and reimagining newspapers. I read the blog because he often posts images and page layouts of the company's work. They never fail to impress. But in a somewhat off-topic post from today, he points to a Dow Jones story about the economy that delivers one of the best one-two punches of bad news, good news I've ever seen:
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 2,000 points this morning when scientists reported that the earth would soon hit a giant comet and be obliterated.
However, stocks rebounded in the afternoon after the Federal Reserve cut interests rates.
We're all going to die! But at least we'll have access to cheap capital!
