I hadn't thought out the reasoning behind Betteridge before, the highlighted portion below rounds out the law's method of action. "Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: 'Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.' It is named after Ian Betteridge, a British technology journalist . . . . It is based on the assumption that if the publishers were confident that the answer was yes, they would have presented it as an assertion; by presenting it as a question, they are not accountable for whether it is correct or not." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge's_law_of_headlines https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge's_law_of_headlines
