Now, of course, this isn't the only news the Daily Bugle had to report on January 30! There's also this, in...well it should be 1987 or so, but it looks like...huh, 1942? Now that ain't right!

January 30, 1989: The Daily Bugle completely forgets how to lay out a front page!

And in 1996!

So, in summary...January 30, won't you? I know the Daily Bugle did.
