Ambiguous Headline

On the UTC webpage there is a headline that reads "UTC Department of Justice sponsors hate crime forum." What I understood was that "sponsors" was the subject and "hate" was the verb. I clicked on it expecting to see a story about controversy. Alas. "Sponsors" was the verb. "Hate" was just an adjective describing the forum. (Which it probably deserves.) So instead of a story about sponsors hating a forum, I get a story about a department sponsoring a forum. Booooring.

  1. Was the D of J sponsoring a forum that was all in favor of hate crimes, or trying to prevent hate crimes? That's a pretty crucial detail you left out, there

  2. The D of J needs to bring justice on some of UTC's stupid policies, not host dumb forums.
