My local paper ran this headline once:

"Effects of Death Unknown"

"...it is unlawful in the ordinary course of things or in a private house to murder a child; it should not be permitted any sect then to sacrifice children." -Thomas Jefferson

I used to be a newspaper reporter and editor.

One of my college instructors told us to be VERY CAREFUL when writing headlines.

He always used the example of "Coed Says Beans Make Her Astute."

A real one I caught: "Suicide Survivors Group Formed." If you commit suicide, of couse you're dead.

Another one: "Coed Strangled to Death." Strangled means dead. You can survive being strangled.

I'm not surprised at all about the examples in the article.

"We become what we behold. We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us." -- Marshall McLuhan, after Alexander Pope and William Blake.
