That headline is not misleading, it’s satirical.
What’s misleading is when YWN writes “PHOTOS IN EXTENDED ARTICLE” in big red letters, and the article isn’t any longer than usual and contains ONE extra photo practically the same as the title photo.
ChadGadya: I disagree with you. Based on the headline I thought she actually said it and someone was writing a rebuttal.
its called clickbait
clickbait is still (IMO) not appropriate for a frum website.
Journalism 101 teaches that headlines are not part of the articles. They might be clickbait, or “teasers” for those of us who remember the time before online news. The article is where the information is.
Journalism is a dirty profession. Many of the lowest of society are purveyors of this trade.
The news media is making a big deal out of Tropical Storm Harvey’s second landfall, but in reality this landfall is a good thing because it will lessen the storm’s ability to draw moisture from the Gulf. The storm center being stalled close to the coast or over water is part of why we’ve seen such incredible rainfall accumulations in Texas and Louisiana.
