Headline fail

May 30, 2010 16:10

So I am reading the paper and come across the following headline:

Children who abuse animals may require counselling

Okay, so after the "well, duh!" moment, I actually read the article. Turns out Ohio is considering passing a law requiring children caught abusing animals to undergo therapy. Now I know all about space constraints for headlines but there has to be a better way to word that

Kids who abuse animals may be forced into therapy

comes to mind off the top of my head and, with time, I'm sure I could do better.

And, yes, this is me being my father's daughter, I am aware...

wtf?, got crack?, in the news
