Yahoo’s current front page has photos of Sarah Palin and Oprah Winfrey side-by-side with the headline “Week of Babies and Lies”
The clear intent is to make it seem that Sarah Palin is somehow wrapped up in “lies” and maybe that she has to go on Oprah to talk about it.
NO, when you click to the actual article it turns out that one item is about Bristol Palin’s baby, and a totally separate item is about the holocaust-related hoax love story that Oprah fell for.
Sarah Palin has NOTHING to do with the “lies” alluded to in the headline, but you’d never know it from the way Yahoo presents it on their main page, seen by 80 million Americans per day.
Ah, they’ve changed the page — maybe someone pointed out to them how it made them look.
Too bad, I should have figured out how to take a screenshot and post it here!!
It’s not even an original dirty trick — didn’t US Weekly do the same thing on its cover?
