A colleague of mine once got a carpeting for writing that a granny had "beaten off a mugger".

We all kept a straight face and insisted that we had no idea it could mean anything rude.

During the Lewinski case my local paper ran the headline "Clinton Accused of Shirt Lifting"

It was a story about a bloke called Bill Clinton from Pollokshilds who stood accused of stealing two shirts and jacket from Oxfam
