More in misleading headlines
CNN's outdone itself in a headline that reads the exact opposite of reality.
Headline: "Gal wearing 1 dress every day for year"
My reading of it: "Gal wears a different dress every day for a year, for a grand total of 365 dresses." Curious what the big deal was (and out of non-work things to do on the intertubes), I clicked.
Reality: "Gal wears the same dress for a year, for a grand total of 1 dress." Social activist, Sheena Matheiken, from India got her designer friend to make a versatile dress, 7 copies of it in fact. Matheiken is wearing one of the 7 copies every day for a year, accessorizing it to the hilt, and raising donations for education in India.
