Headline undercutting the text
There's an article in today's NY Times Magazine arguing that we shouldn't worry about languages dying out. I disagree with the author, in part because we disagree over the accuracy of translation. The odd thing is that I think an editor there agree with me: the headline is "If all languages are equal, why does it matter when one of them dies?" and my immediate reaction was to substitute "men" for "languages" in that question.
