^Better headline in my opinion.
It's pretty funny that journalists take the high school/undergrad approach of essay writing (paraphrased/reworded source material). Sorta explains how we end up with odd titles like this one.
- degenerate 5y agoSadly the goal of news networks is not to convey information properly, it's to outrage or surprise you, and generate ad traffic. The more facetious a headline, the more $$$ it makes the news network from clicks. Because of this, consider all news another form of entertainment (and nothing more).
- mc32 5y agoIt’s like they are going for the Taboola approach to clickbait: Have a title that generates interest and don’t even bother delivering on it in the content. Content farms do something like: “Why travelers are advised to take blank sheet of paper with them.” Then they go on about some unrelated nonsense and never mention anything about any sheet of paper.
- cratermoon 5y agoFYI the person who writes the article rarely writes the headline. That's the job of editors. Source: I worked as a copyeditor at a newspaper. A big part of our job was writing the headline. Back in the day it was harder because it had to fit allotted space on paper, today it's easier.
