Bus plunge Bus plunge stories are a nickname for a journalistic practice of reporting bus mishaps in short articles that describe the vehicle as "plunging" from a bridge or hillside road. The phenomenon has been noted in the ''New York Times'', which once published as many as 14 "bus plunge" stories per year in its foreign news section.〔 The stories exist not only because of their perceived newsworthiness but because they could be reduced to a few lines and used to fill gaps in the page layout. Further, the words "bus" and "plunge" are short, and can be used in one-column headlines within the narrow, eight-column format that was prevalent in newspapers through the first half of the 20th century. The adoption of computerized layout tools has reduced the need for such filler stories, but news wires continue to carry them. ==See also==
