The Simpsons: 30 Best Newspaper Gags

29. Banner Bars Booze/Booze Barred By Banner

Who doesn't love Homer Simpson's turn as the Beer Baron in Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment in season eight? It's one of the most memorable golden era episodes of the show. It also made great use of the newspaper bit, with multiple different papers and headlines, the best of which used offsetting headlines in a play on words to make viewers chuckle. Another great example from this episode: Beer Baron Beats Banner (along with Family Sedan Outruns Cops).
