Reply #33: Look either the quote in the body of the text is correct or it's not.

If it's correct - that is, if the quote made by the journalist who wrote the damned article is correct - the title is butchery. It's always possible that the journalist misquoted the cleric and the cleric said something worse than what the journalist quoted him as saying in the body of the text. In other words, the title is correct and the journalist is mistaken. But, I know that it's standard practice that the editor picks the title. So, the editor is likely to have picked an article title WHICH MAKES HIS OWN JOURNALIST LOOK LIKE A BLATHERING IDIOT WHO IS COVERING UP THE TRUE ANTI-SEMITISM OF THE SPEAKER QUOTED, because of what is known in the vulgar as editorial slant.

If we assume that the journalist was indeed quoting in the body of the text accurately, the editor purposefully made the cleric sound worse than he really did when the actual quote was already bad enough.

It's become a pretty regular statement that the leadership of Iran denies the Holocaust completely, in its entirety. Maybe so, but that's not what the leaders of Iran have actually been saying. That's why it ticks me off. News organizations should leave the psychic mind-reading to mediums.
