Παράρτημα στις εφημερίδες δεν είναι μόνο το supplement (όπως το Φιλολογικό παράρτημα των Τάιμς, Times Literary Supplement), είναι και το έκτακτο παράρτημα, που στα ελληνοαγγλικά μου λεξικά βλέπω να δίνεται μόνο σαν special edition, οπότε νομίζω ότι οφείλουμε να προσθέσουμε και το extra.

In the early days of newspapers, when newspapers were the primary method of delivering the news, when something big happened, the publisher would not only publish the normal daily paper, but would also publish an Extra. The newspapers were sold on the street, often by newsboys, who had a stack of papers and would sell them to walkers-by. When an Extra came out, they would chant "Extra! Extra! read all about it" to call attention to the fact that something big has happened, and an Extra paper has been published.

Η γελοιογραφία, κλεμμένη από εδώ, όπου γράφει:

In the old days before TV, radio, and the Internet, most people who followed the news got their information from the newspapers, which were normally published at best on a daily basis. If a major story (such as the death of a President or a declaration of war) broke after the day's deadline, a newspaper might choose to print an "Extra" edition on top of their regular edition. Sometimes they were short and carried only the story itself, but more often they were identical to the earlier main edition with just the first few pages replaced. By the 1940s, though, newspapers were in competition with radio for advertising dollars, and big-city papers like the New York Times and the Montreal Gazette published four or five regular editions a day, taking any possible opportunity to publish an "extra" so they could boost circulation. Even now, papers infrequently publish short "extra" editions if a really big story breaks; many did after 9/11, for instance.
