Putting the “Why” Into Ynetnews
Remember how yesterday I mentioned how hilarious the Ynetnews headlines are?
Well, not everyone agrees after this headline to a story on how more Israel women use SMS than their male counterparts (reproduced below, in case they take it down):
And check out the caption to the photo:
Whether it’s for booty calls or general gabbery? More Israeli women use SMS than men.
This has generated alot of controversy on the site, with many readers feeling compelled to voice their disapproval. I particularly liked this comment:
What does PMS have to do with it? Unless I missed the connection between hormonal mood swings and SMS’s. If the statistics were reversed…would you have considered the byline “Enlarged Prostates to SMS”?
Heh.
Update: The Ynetnews editor comments that the headline writer is a woman!

Doesn’t make “her” any less of a moron.
That may have been written by a woman but what on earth was the editor thinking in letting that through?
