    BBC is such trash…

      It’s a descriptive headline. Not their fault if some people are so addled by social media that they mistake it for rage bait.

        It’s more descriptive than “Woman died after living made her delusional”.

        It’s less descriptive than “Woman died after a vitamin B12 deficiency made her delusional”

        I’m pretty sure it’s intentionally vague and misleading to trigger engagement around a divisive topic.

        I wonder if there is a term for that.
