Blogging 101: Headline Juxtaposition

Posted on | September 4, 2012 | 6 Comments

Food-Stamp Use Climbs To Record,
Reviving Campaign Issue
— Bloomberg News

Mrs. Obama’s 2nd-Term Agenda:
‘Impact Nature of Food in Grocery Stores’
— CNS News

Africa’s Elephants Are Being
Slaughtered in Poaching Frenzy
— New York Times

Is there any actual relationship between these headlines? I don’t claim that such a relationship exists, but your mileage may vary.

    I’m sure it all has something to do with climate change (hoax).
