Really creative take on the theme with some good art to boot.
My main thought while playing this was "this would rock as a Jack box game" Being able to come up with stupid twists on news articals seems prime for that formula.
As a high score chaser though it's fine, but a little hard at points. I feel it's most natural coming up with ideas when your asked to make it funny, but sarcastic and serious are where I struggled to write things.
Also, I agree that the game needs someway to dispose of spare words. As of right now, they start to take up way to much space near the edge of your run.
