Has anyone ever even *tried* defending the common practice among media outlets of running titles without getting authors' approval first?

I understand that deadlines are tight, but it really doesn't take long at all. Include it in your edit suggestions!

I've done a ton of editing myself and would never dream of running a title I hadn't ok'd with the author first.

I think it depends on the context (specifically: hard news vs. opinion matters a lot)

I don't think it matters much (& the distinction between "hard news" & opinion isn't often a very clear one).

You'd believe that ;) I have a long standing disagreement with that POV.

Haha, I think it's quite easy to demonstrate if you look at most news pages.

That's a failure condition of news pages, and in my opinion, giving up is just giving in to

I agree that most news pages are a failure :). Haha, but seriously, everyone has a perspective. Let's be real about that.
