Bad Headlines

Terrible plural-singular disagreement? Accidental implications of zombie athletes stumbling through the last stages of their careers? Unashamed promise of list article as clickbait? Mawkish appeal to tragedy combined with a list format that suggests detachment from actual engagement with meaning of tragedy in the name of compiling? No headlines gives you all of them like "20 Athletes Who Died Before Their Career Was Over."
