An actual conversation brought to you by whomever has the amazing(ly awful) job of running the twitter handle at the Salt Lake Tribune and yours truly. I would like to note that I have nothing against this person on the other end of the twitter line, but I think their newspaper is awful sometimes and what makes it even more unfortunate is that it is the best option in Utah.
somecoolgal 'Jazz, Lakers have different goals in Game 4' is by far the worst headline from @sltrib today (so far)
sltrib @somecoolgal We use dummy heads until a copy editor can write something better... sometimes they're not so hot. :)
somecoolgal @sltrib You guys might be better off with {Headline Coming Soon}, honestly ;-)
sltrib @somecoolgal LOL I'll suggest that... something makes me think that's not going to fly...
Also, this is the same newspaper that I took issue with online last fall when I asked why in the Utah news section there was a Polygamy header- we all know Utah needs more people thinking we are all polygamists. The answer I got was simply that it polygamy stories have some of the highest readership rates. I pointed them to one of their own articles that showed otherwise- we prefer stories about students having sex with their students- but the section still exists.
Update: I wrote this blog earlier this evening and I just checked, apparently the copy editor never had time to write something better because the headline remained the same.
