    Nah. I meant it’s not your fault it’s a dumb headline, it’s the journalist/editor who picked it.

    I should have explicitly said that to be clear tho considering how much hassle you’ve went thru to get a post in

        My preconceived notion is that people should fight for the things they believe in and not just shift their beliefs because the money said so. Strange, I know.

          My preconceived notion is that people shouldn’t amplify misleading headlines. That goes doubly for people who criticize misleading headlines when the shoe is on the other foot.

            It’s not misleading if I provide a date in the body, one is provided in the article/blog and the candidate totally said all of that. I’m not allowed to change the title, so how am I otherwise supposed to compensate for a lack of reading comprehension?
