Come up with a clever phrase, get $25
 
I'll split a $50 prize if someone here can come up with a title for a new feature being started at my newspaper.
Here's the description of the feature:

[ QUOTE ]

Starting next week, the State Journal will add a list of five fast facts on page one meant to help busy readers digest news quickly.

The feature will serve double duty, giving readers with limited time some basics on the news of the day, while helping other readers find more in-depth coverage throughout the paper. The feature will run Monday through Friday because it is aimed at busy weekday readers.

[/ QUOTE ]

Fast Five has already been shot down.

I'll submit every reasonable idea posted in the this thread, and if your (my) entry is the winner, I'll split the prize with you.

This would be my winner so far.

But remember, this is for a daily newspaper. We're going for creative, but not too creative.

Fact Force Five was atop my list of the dumbest in the thread, and it wasnt even close.

I really like Take Five, too. Fits.

Then I guess I'd submit something more current like 'Fantastic Five' or something

It's a play on Fox Force Five, from Pulp Fiction. And Take Five is so vanilla, it just might win.

Does it have to have five in the title?

Assuming they are in bullet point format, how about "Bullet News"

What if someday they want to change it to 3, 4, or 6 or 7? including the number is old and cliche.

Newsflash, it's simple, it's easy, and it cuts to the hard of the matter.

Not to sound like I am campaigning, but in case you are not familiar: Take Five is also an allusion to the jazz album by Dave Brubek. I am not very knowledgeable in jazz, but most consider it a “masterpiece” I believe.
