Another example of that is when, in Sept 2004, Brian Clough died in the middle of the Kenneth Bigley saga. For those who don't know Brian Clough was a football manager known affectionately as Old Big 'Ead, Kenneth Bigley was an English bloke captured in Iraq and held hostage under the threat of beheading (and who was, indeed, beheaded).
With it's customary sensitivity the Currant Bun ran the headline "Goodbye to Old Big 'Ead" on the same front page as a picture of Kenneth Bigley.
On a similar note (although I can't remember which paper it was) I remember an article attacking Brass Eye's paedophile programme - next to a leering spread on (the then underage) Charlotte Church's breasts entitled "Look who's a BIG girl now!".
After that drug test went wrong in March - "I WATCHED HUMAN GUINEA PIGS EXPLODE"
The Sport, on Versace's murder, pure genius - "SHOOT YOU, SIR"
The Sun had one about a cop who'd had a sex change, "NO NOBBO BOBBO KEEPS JOBBO" - I swear that's not made up. They also once ran "MY NAME IS GEORGE" on the front page, which was basically about newsreader Trevor McDonald really being called George. Scandalous.

Indexing all opinion
from wikipedia:
"The show caused a furor among sections of the British tabloid press. The Daily Star printed an article decrying Morris and the show next to a piece about the then 15-year-old singer Charlotte Church's breasts under the headline "She's a big girl now"[4]. The Daily Mail featured pictures of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who were 13 and 11 at the time respectively, in their bikinis next to a headline describing Brass Eye as "Unspeakably Sick" "

While I can see the Onion headlines as cheating, their response to the WTC attacks on 9/11 was the greatest headline Ive ever seen, real or fake:
HOLY FUCKING SHIT!
i think they handled the whole affair amazingly, with their articles being hilarious, and yet not derogatory or upsetting as the tragedy was still so close.
