    You are incapable of explaining it because it is an incredibly common and recognizable representation of a bad faith headline.

      Summarizing an article and writing a headline isn’t easy. I know from experience. It may be in bad faith, it doesn’t appear that way to me. It doesn’t detract from the relevant information in the article.

        FWIW I think the administration could, should, and (unfortunately) probably won’t do more to support a cease fire.

        I just don’t think my opinion justifies misrepresenting what actually occurred in a headline intentionally.

        And the author of the headline did. They knew. And if you have experience, you know they knew.
