Is it normal for nydailynews to have editorializing right in the subheadline?
"State is concerned about hotel occupancy taxes and possible evictions by greedy building owners."
Greedy is a value judgment with big negative connotations.
- JackFr 13y agoTo your first question, yes.
- po 13y agoIs it normal for nydailynews to have editorializing right in the subheadline? Yes. Very normal. It's a tabloid.
- noarchy 13y agoThey could just as easily have rewritten the headline to say: "Greedy State is concerned about hotel occupancy taxes and possible evictions by building owners." The headline is indeed making a value judgement that the State is noble in going after money, but that building owners are not when they want money.
- goatforce5 13y agoThe state may be concerned about building owners who are greedy. That doesn't imply that all building owners are greedy.
