Those are all different news sources, and vastly different titles. It's reasonable to expect people to search for the identical story having been posted, but, IMHO, I prefer to see the story from multiple sources; I get more information that way. I realize some people disagree on this matter, but I don't think you can get on the poster for not searching. I personally only search for the exact title. If it hasn't been posted, it hasn't been posted.
I've seen individual FReepers complain about this, but never an Admin Mod.

OK, that's good for you, but about 10,000 other FReeper disagree. People do post the exact same story under different headlines many, many times over, some times by accident, other times not.
In this case, laney learned something. This was more important than your opinion of it.
If's you're so interested in seeing a story evolve, post the changes to the original thread, and encourage others to do so also.
