Today, newspaper editors insist on the headlines creating confusion and sensationalism.

They've no interest whatsoever in the truth or facts; their only concern being selling more than their competition.

Prior to "going to press", the editors will either compose their own mangled headlines for a story, or suggest that the journalist change it as directed.

This is is the reason for these garbled headline grabbers...intentionally designed to be misinterpreted through syntactical misplacement of adjectives, subject, verb, & objects.

We no longer have news.

We now have "infotainment".

I do get what your saying, but I would say that it is a bit of a generalisation, I think that there is still some real news out there, even if half of the one time news providers are now infotainment providers.

Shlomo:
It seems like, most of the time, it should be called crapotainment.

That's why JTF is so important... we all want the truth.
