Lead headline in Our Man's print edition of the Japan Times today:
AMR, TPG
eye hefty JAL
investment
Question: Are they trying to tell me a news story or give me an eye exam? I'm leaning towards the latter. Our Man's OK with the last line, but he can't read the first two, Doc. Time for bifocals?

Sorry, I was off.
What's more, there shouldn't be three lines of different sized text. Maybe a deck, but that's it.
No worries Jesse, Our Man is just slagging the style, not the individual who has been taught to write like that by some chimp at a typewriter.
Must admit, Our Man sexed it up a bit ala Fox News - the point sizes were all the same in the original, not that that excuses the attrocious headlinese.
think you need more than bi focals Ourmani.
Sight can only do so much!!
eat more grapes,apparently they're very good for your movements and may do something to alleviate the voices in your head.
glad to help
