Pun-Per-Word

NP: Foo Fighters, In Your Honor

Since I'm all about introducing new metrics lately, I'd like to throw this one out there: The Pun-Per-Word ratio.

The current leader in the category is E!Online, outdoing even Billboard Magazine with their reportage on the ongoing, er, flap about Burger King's Coq Roq advertising campaign.

According to the occasional words in the article that aren't puns, Slipknot's lawyer contends that "some fans have already confused the fake band with the real Slipknot." Something about correlation not being causality, or maybe about operator error, springs to mind here.
