Sun's bullseye with WW1 exploding dart headline


Double top Sun headline today on a story of how pilots in World War One destroyed German Zeppelins with - an exploding dart.

Royal Navy Commander Francis Ranken invented the dart in 1915. Now the demonstration model, believed to be the last, could fetch £1,200 at auction in Marlow, Bucks, on March 2, the Sun says.

The Sun headline on its online version of the story is the prosaic "WW1 pilots’ exploding dart" way off target compared to the print version.
