Useless Headline Haters Unite!!!

[MotionMan]

The only thing worse than useless thread titles are useless headlines on news websites. For example, before you click on the link, do you know who the headline is referring to? (Redskins fans need not apply):

Johnson signs with Redskins

It is the Internet. You are not using manual print presses anymore. Is it that hard to include the first name, or at least the first initial or position (though RB Johnson may still not narrow it down)?

Agreed. Slashdot is particularly bad.

Lebron being busted for roids was a classic though.

Did you click on it?

They do that because they want you to click on the headline.

Did you use to work for the marketing team for RealPlayer?

Annoying business practices are annoying.
