"When my husband saw that headline he absolutely bounced off the wall," Mary Tivnan said of the front page they received in North Fort Myers,Cheap NFL Jerseys, Florida, where the Brewster,Cheap Adidas NHL Jerseys, Massachusetts, couple spends their winters.
He said the headline reminded him of the famous front page the Chicago Daily Tribune ran following President Harry Truman's 1948 re-election victory over challenger Thomas Dewey,Cheap NFL Jerseys China.
Bakst also wondered what impact the flub might have on the print newspaper industry broadly, which has been struggling as more people turn to social media and online news sources.

BOSTON (AP) — It wasn't exactly "Dewey Defeats Truman," but some Florida readers of The Boston Globe learned a different Super Bowl outcome than most on Monday morning.
Early editions of New England's largest newspaper ran a front page suggesting the Patriots lost to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night, with a headline that read "A Bitter End" over a large image of star quarterback Tom Brady falling to his knees. The Falcons had a comfortable lead going into halftime, but the Patriots mounted a furious rally and won 34-28 in overtime for the franchise's fifth championship.
"I worry that this incident might cause some readers to say, 'That's it,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, I'm done with newspapers,'" he said.
It's not clear how many readers received the incorrect front page,Cheap NFL Jerseys China. Globe officials didn't immediately respond to requests for comment Monday.
Tivnan said her husband, Frank Tivnan — a former Boston Herald political reporter and spokesman for the late Boston Mayor Kevin White — went out Monday afternoon to scrounge up more copies of the Globe for posterity.
But Bakst, a retired political columnist for The Providence Journal in Rhode Island, suggested a vaguer headline should have been used as a placeholder.
Globe subscriber M. Charles Bakst, a Rhode Islander also spending time in Fort Myers, Florida, said he sympathized with the deadline pressures that likely caused the Pulitzer Prize-winning news outlet to fumble a critical story for its readers.
