    You do understand the importance of editors in a newspaper, and their role in crafting headlines for articles…right?

    Simply because a student said it, doesn’t mean it should be included in a headline, especially if use misrepresents situation i.e. a battlefield or terrorist attack, and not everyone just shitting their guts out.

    Editorial discretion and competence, it has meaning. Or, at least, it should.
