In the story I'm writing, there is a tabloid that the main character loves reading for laughs. I'm having no trouble coming up with stories and headlines for the fictional paper, but I can't think of a good name for it.

Anyone know any good names for a tabloid?

The Daily Fail.

In all seriousness, I think the easiest way to name a paper is to take a word, particularly one pertaining to news, ideas or people, and precede it with "daily" or "Sunday".

The Midnight Star.

Embroiled in slave rebellion, I escaped crucifixion simply by declaring 'I am Vito', everyone else apparently being called 'Spartacus'.
