Headline on CNN...
-
Maybe somebody was using the corpses for target practice? Testing some homemade bullets and their effect on human tissue? Maybe (and is probably more likely) the reports at CNN are ignoramuses.

This is an absurd headline.
And it caught your attention did it not? absurd or not, the art of headlines is to get you to look, or get you to talk to your friends to spread the publicity. Shocking headlines, exaggerated headlines, WTF headlines, they all exist.... YOU found a WTF headline and it worked, you told a whole bunch more people and I bet a few might even have googled or swung by CNN to see the headline themselves, which means YOU just proved the headline worked 100% as it intended. Absurd or not, it worked.

It caught my attention because I notice absurd headlines. I didn't read the story, and the only people I told about it was here, and not because I wanted them to read the story (notice there wasn't a link to it).
