the following are other possible headlines if you’re a newspaper (the traditional media is constrained by time and space):

Mubarak falls

Mubarak ousted

Mubarak flees (when Marcos was ousted, the headline of the inquirer was: “Marcos flees”. When Erap was ousted, the headlines of newspapers were: “Erap falls” and “Erap resigns”. Because this is a blog, there are no space and time constraints, so one is able to put “people oust” as the first two words of a head, it’s longer though)
