I'm soooo tired of irresponsible headlines. Here's what greeted me this morning on the AT&T Yahoo page: Chuck Norris charity cheat: I'm guilty. I think: Wow, Chuck Norris, charity cheat?? That doesn't sound like Chuck Norris. And why doesn't it? Because it isn't Chuck Norris! One of the executives of his charity is guilty of this offense. Chuck had nothing to do with it.

Stuff like this really gets me! How many people read the headlines of stories and never bother to read the actual content. Journalists should have more integrity.

Ugh. (rant over)

This is very true. Although Lewis Stevens* Charity Cheat might not sell as many papers. :(
