Inane Headlines on Supreme Court School Ruling

As a follow-up to my previous post, I thought I'd take a look at the inane headlines for coverage of the 5-4 ruling today that restricts school districts from using race to manage school populations. Time and the Los Angeles Times are real howlers:

  • High Court rejects public school diversity plan (AP via Chicago Sun-Times)
  • Supreme Court rejects public school diversity plans (USA Today)
  • Supreme Court Limits Integration Plan (AP story via Time.com)
  • Supreme Court strikes down school integration policies (LA Times)

Oh, and the Detroit Free Press goes with this gem: "Supreme Court rules race cannot determine school choice."

Two things: Hasn't that been the law of the land since Brown v. Board of Education, and, since when is it school "choice" when its a government body that selects for you where you MUST attend school?

Use the comments field to link to inane headlines (and loaded lede paragraphs) in newspapers in your neck of the woods.
