I can't parse the ": President" in the headline. Is that standard way to indicate that "the President said so"?

- biot 14y agoIf you go to their home page and look at the "Other Stories" section, it appears to be a standard way to attribute the phrase. Think of it as Reverse Indian Notation; in North America we'd say "President: India to launch Mars mission this year".
- keyle 14y agoI agree. That's just backwards. But I've seen it in the Australian press too.
