Too many double negatives.

I agree. I hate headlines like that. I have to analyze in my mind … was this a good thing or a bad thing? “Court vacates a decision banning a law over abortion”. Huh? I still don’t get it.

I know. It is good news though.

The lower court overturning of the law to ban those abortions, has been vacated. It should not have been overturned to begin with.

You need a decoder ring to read some of these titles.

A federal appeals court had vacated a decision by a panel of its judges overturning blocking Ohio from protecting unborn babies with Down syndrome from discriminatory abortions.

Agreed. This sentence is totally contradictory and makes no sense.

Yes, Yes! It sounds like one of those bills to where if you vote “NO!”, you actually wind up voting “YES!”
