NYT Headlines

2019-09-16 23:31:39.913355+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

NYT has gone full-on click-bait. Yesterday it was excusing Kavanaugh's alleged behavior (some of the story was later retracted) with "Having a penis thrust in your face at a drunken dorm party may seem like harmless fun" (more), today it's... well... more than a little headline editorial about the potential (but, IMHO, unlikely) impacts of rent control:

If we're gonna go with editorializing in headlines, we could go for truth: Maybe something like "California passes rent control measure 'cause fucking over young people with Prop 13 wasn't enough"?

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
