Truth is stranger than fiction. From Wikileaks to Michael Jackson's album leak, the challenge is to illustrate your favorite headline news story from this week.

 
Submission Guidelines
 
• Draw any headline on any topic (politics, entertainment, tech, etc), but it must be from this week.
• Do it old school, with paint, a pen, marker, colored pencil, but no computer help!
• Scan it or take a nice picture of it, presentation counts.
• Save it as a JPG and upload, you only get one submission.
• DEADLINE: WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15TH (11AM EST)
 
Prize
 

The submission with the most love will win a Boogie Board tablet ($39.95 value) delivered straight to their door. It's fun, easy to use, and perfect for doodling. Simply press on the surface with the included stylus or other suitable writing instrument (even your finger) to create an image and then start over again with the push of a button.

 
Spread the word
  
 
 

And the winner is...
