You are on a definite 2nd-world, non-native-speaker roll here! I’m afraid you are going to end up cowering in a corner, sucking on a lollipop, and whimpering for Wolfie…

Would like to see what a top designer could do given this as a mock-up with ample freedom to go from there…

I half expected it to say ‘borken’. That would have made it interesting XD
Yes, I imagine a good designer might make an excellent cover out of the concept. I bet somebody already made it, somewhere. It’s not a very original concept, but it can be very effective, if done right.

Title “Broken News”, with the image of various headline clips and a darkened crystal ball on a fortune teller’s table …. lotsa potential there.
I think it’s a “person” on a sofa, just head and shoulders above the backrest. Or maybe it’s a headboard and a crappily made bed. The whole thing’s a hot mess, especially the cheap use of a few headlines and photos multiple times at different rotations. Jeezy cheesy.
There aren’t actually that many headlines and maps — many of them are repeated. The pasting around the title like that is really screwing with my sense of perspective.

Is that a puzzle piece?

It’s this guy, but from the back.

Am I bad person for cynically laughing at the juxtaposition of ‘US ATTACKS IRAQ’ with ‘A Short Story?’
