Sounds like he is using some software I wrote back in 1988 called 
"Shocking Headlines In Tablolids"
Its purpose was to generate random news headlines, such as:

Psychic Carrot reveals Secret of Eternal Youth.
Bermuda Triangle Mysteriously Disappears!
PROOF! Chimps Secretly Control All Major World Powers.
Cannibal Prowls Soviet Space Station.
Maimed for life, Double-amputee frog sues French restaurant.

Come to think of it, ALL the major tabloids seem to be using my 
program (first described in that esteemed computer journal, 
Micro Cornucopia, issue #42, p.75. Look it up.)
Mebbe I can sue and get rich?
