Hi Pekk, I posted this headline, and I copied and pasted it almost verbatim - adding only the "Uber:" label at the beginning for clarity. NYT sometimes changes headlines on stories, and even uses alternate headlines for some links.

If you go to the NYT home page and scroll down to the Technology section below the fold, you should see the link/headline I used.

When I click through to the story, I still see the headline I used and I can't seem to find the one you are referring to, so maybe it customizes the headline based on which link you clicked?



You are right, I was reading from the title instead of the header tag, which also contains the pointlessly inflammatory language. Mea culpa (and NYT's)
