"Fox apologizes for 'X-Men' ads showing a strangled Jennifer Lawrence 4 months later"

Wait:

Are they apologizing for not showing it promptly?

Are they apologizing for showing a four month old corpse? (Yeah, that would be pretty gross, and perhaps they should apologize for that.).

Because that headline by the Mashable people 'mashes' logical sentence structure. I await THEIR apology for strangling the English Language

To convey what they intended they should have said something like: "Four months later, Fox apologizes for showing an image of the character being played by Jeniffer Lawrence being strangled."

Well, the spelling on that poster would make a third grader blush.

Maybe grammar nazis have a useful function.
