Mush from the Wimp

"Mush from the Wimp" was a joke headline at the top of an editorial in "The Boston Globe" that accidentally passed through to publication in 1980.
Headline.
On March 15, 1980, "The Boston Globe" ran an editorial that began:
There was nothing exceptional about it except the headline, "Mush from the Wimp", which essentially called the speech "mush" and Carter a "wimp". The headline was corrected to read "All must share the burden" during the print run, but only after 161,000 copies had already gone to circulation.
Aftermath.
The phrase had been created by "Globe" editorial writer Kirk Scharfenberg; in 1982, he wrote an op-ed piece discussing it. Scharfenberg had felt that Carter's speech was "wishy-washy" and it left him "not much impressed". "I meant it as an in-house joke and thought it would be removed before publication," he explained. "It appeared in 161,000 copies of the "Globe" the next day." Scharfenberg also noted the use of "wimp" as a popular political insult afterwards. He remained with the "Globe" until his death in 1992 from cancer at age 48.
A month after the headline was published, Theo Lippman Jr. of "The Baltimore Sun" declared "Mush from the Wimp" as being "on its way to becoming one of the most famous headlines of our time." He placed it behind "Wall St. Lays an Egg" ("Variety", 1929) and ahead of "Ford to City: Drop Dead" (New York "Daily News", 1975).
The phrase became well known enough that, in 1995, a "Globe" editorial chastising the Iditarod race for caving in to pressure from animal rights activists was titled "More wimps from the mush".
The "New York Post" used "Mush from the wimp", with credit to Scharfenberg, as the title of an opinion column published on June 20, 2013, criticizing President Obama following a speech in Berlin.
