[Tabloid] The Gutter Press Roleplaying Game

[max.lambertini]

TSR actually published a game called Tabloid that was pretty much what you describe. It was an Amazing Engine game and while it never had the oomph to be played regularly it was great for those drunken Xmas sessions or when only half the group turned up.
It might be worth your while looking out a copy if only to see that you don't tread on any toes.

There was also Pandemonium! Adventures in Tabloid World, which was published in 1993, designed by Stephan Sechi and featuring game consultancy by Robin Laws. A quite campy game, indeed, but full of ideas I mined for other games.

Arse,

If it's already been done, then that does call the project into question. I'm not interested in rehashing something for the sake of it. I'll look into these games and assess the situation.

The again, stealing other people's work and claiming it as an exclusive is true to the spirit of such a game :)
