Woman hit my train. Is the tag for the article or for subby

Can somebody post the original headline/article pair? The third sentence (now) reads "The woman has been hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries."

Woman Hit By Metro Train, Shutting Down Popular Inaugural Stops
A 68-year-old female survived a fall onto the tracks and being hit by a train in an overcrowded station near the route to the National Mall.


that's what the headline read for me
 
2009-01-20 04:48:03 PM
Man, at first I was all "I'm gonna win my inauguration dead pool!" And then they crushed my hopes.

Yes! Dissent is the lowest form of treason (now).

There is a sentence under the headline... do we count that as sentence one? It's in bold print so I think it's important, but then again, should we only consider fonts of the same type (and inflection) for purposes of sentence counting? Regardless since subby put the "third sentence" in quote marks and not the headline sentence, would that mean that he is paraphrasing TFA, cause it does seem like she wasn't hit but just fell.

Literally or figuratively?

/could go either way, ya know, depending on how the lady was actually hit.

By the way, if anyone here is from Fox News, kill yourself. Thank you, thank you. Just a little thought. I'm just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day they'll take root. I don't know. You try. You do what you can. Kill yourselves. Seriously though, if you work for Fox, do it. No really, there's no rationalisation for what you do, and you are Satan's little helpers, OK? Kill yourselves, seriously. You're the ruiner of all things good. Seriously, no, this is not a joke. "There's gonna be a joke coming..." There's no farking joke coming, you are Satan's spawn, filling the world with bile and garbage, you are farked and you are farking us, kill yourselves, it's the only way to save your farking soul. Kill yourself, kill yourself, kill yourself now.

With apologies to Bill Hicks, who would certainly agree

Yes! People you disagree with should DIE! Why don't you just man up, go get an AK, and do it yourself. Why not? Just a little thought. You could try. I mean, you could just do it. They disagree with you! Certainly that's enough reason. Come on. Do it.

Do it.

I don't have a problem with people disagreeing with me. But I do have a problem with people trying to tell me they don't disagree with me, and then having them disagree with me.

How I read it
 
2009-01-20 05:26:51 PM
Can't find the spot in the article that contrdicts the headline... maybe they removed it, or maybe the subby got lucky and the admin didn't rtfa.
 
2009-01-20 05:31:21 PM
news wire was updated, while the headline wasn't.

search of the google cache showed several places reporting she was hit by the train, some pulled the headline, some haven't.

Was she hot? This story is worthless without pics. How are we supposed to know whether or not a story is important if we don't have pictures of the people involved? Thanks a lot, Fox. True, the story says the woman is 68, and thus probably not hot, but still, a picture would be appreciated. If she's really unattractive, maybe she had it coming. Getting hit by a train, I mean.

It's a metaphor. The woman is America and the train is Socialist Rule under Obama.

Okay.. did this biatch get hit by a train or not? TFA speaks only to her falling on the tracks, dudn't say shiat about her being hit by the train.

/playing with the pet peeves of others

So you have a problem with people disagreeing with you on whether they disagree with you?

I don't disagree with what you are saying, but everything you just said is wrong.
