New York Times:
Fewer Jobs Than Expected Created in January Report Says
The U.S. economy created just 112,000 new jobs in January, far fewer than the 150,000 new jobs expected, government data showed today.

Drudge:
Jobless Rate Drops; 112,000 Jobs Added

Reuters:
Job Growth in January Disappoints

Wall Street Journal:
US Payrolls Grew
in January by 112,000 jobs, the fastest clip in three years but short of the 160,000 economists had been expecting. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.6%

Washington Post:
Jobless Rate Falls to 5.6%
January figures at lowest level in more than two years; 112,00 jobs added, fewer than analysts expected.

From this tiny sample, the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal deliver the most appropriate and informative headlines. (And people ask me why I prefer the WashPo over the NYT ...)
