Re: Headlines that signal that the story will be misleading and/or stupid
Classic misleading clickbait headline today in NZ's Stuff, as it trumpets its winning awards for media. King Charles and Prince William abruptly cancel royal outings Given the recent cancer diagnoses of Chuck and Kate, I'd bet 90% of people seeing that headline went "OMG, something bad happened...
