Crappy headlines are a major form of fake news.
(I wrote to a major paper once to complain about this, and the author of the article replied: Well, I don't write the headlines. Hooray.)
- a3n 7y agoI wrote to the Denver Post once, and the editor replied "We don't write the articles." It was a local story, but written by the paper's owning entity, for publication in all of its owned papers, including the Post where the incident happened. I guess sort of like an in-house news wire "service." They do obviously write some of the articles that appear in their paper.
