been a real problem since the tech press began writing and seems to have

Agreed. I see this all the time.
Fox Nation is a serial headline-abuser. In their case it appears to be

We can expect Fox News and the New York Post to deliberately
misrepresent issues in headlines. It's Murdoch's M.O.

It is a lot more than that, Tom. For instance, discretionary

Good point. US consumer discretionary spending has been shrinking and
