44. That is truly an awful headline

Some of these "journalists" are coming across as terribly desperate. I wonder if they took a college journalism course titled "How to create controversy where none exists".

I'm picturing some managing newspaper editor in a 1940s movie yelling at an obsequious reporter, "And don't come back here without a story or you're fired!" Then later that same editor revising the headline from "Biden's support on Capitol Hill uncertain", to "grimly uncertain. Now that's better!"
