    Because immediately stating the state lost in a headline has more impact. Do you not grasp writing.

    Either way it exclaims the same thing so your gripe is moot.

      I do grasp writing, that is specifically why I asked this question, because the headline framing it as a loss is negative to people who aren’t already supportive of climate action.

        That’s a lot of sentence. I would’ve used em dashes or maybe a semicolon to break up those thoughts.

      “Do you not grasp writing,” they say, forgetting to put a question mark at the end of their question.
