QuintEssential News is very clever. (I think it might be too clever for the target market, though.) Wouldn’t mind losing (Take Five) to this one at all.

it's really depressing to think that this play on words could be beyond the comprehension of the average reader. i really hope that's not true.

Keep in mind we're talking about Wisconsin.
6 out of 10 will comprehend the word "quintessential."
3 out of 10 will get the "quint" part.

Keep in mind the target audience is folk who want their news in Five Easy Pieces. Hey, not a bad idea for the title. Might be too late.

Dude, you should send this in yourself and make the 50 bucks.

QuintEssential News is by far the best and I am ashamed I didn't come up with it myself.

Don't bother with a title. Instead of numbers, just start each line with the following:

The feature starts in Monday's paper, so the decision is likely to be made before the end of the day today.

Be sure to arrange the entries correctly. Ths is also good because it doesn't really imply that there is an ordering of importance.
