PG headling 11/4:
Erie man arrested in death of Pittsburgh man found along highway
What was the arrested Erie man found doing along the highway? Had to read the story to find out that the dead Pittsburgh man was found in a car along the highway. Just saying!

That's more of an indictment of your reading comprehension than it is the headline writer.

Just saying!

Okay, confused, so you are the one who wrote that poor excuse for a hed, and what you are saying is that a confusing hed is what you aimed for so as to make the reader want to understand it by reading the story.

This one is you. There isn't anything wrong with the headline.
