Subject: Select and count duplicates


I have a column containing headlines. In this column
there are some duplicates, like this:
-----------
monsters
headline1
monsters
halloween
monsters
halloween
...
----------

How can I get a result like this instead?
HEADLINE   | HITS
-----------------------
monsters   | 3
halloween  | 2
headline1  | 1
-----------------------

Any thoughts?
