“As the president of the United States, you have power to change the course of history, and the responsibility to save lives right now,” the staffers wrote.

    Taking from my comment on the other community where you posted this:

    Biden asked for one and reported Netanyahu said no.

    The headline sounds like he’s just dismissing his staffers

      You mean the headline is intentionally misleading to the point of misinforming people?

      It’s straight up journalistic malpractice the way they phrased it

          It doesn’t matter what the intent is here, the headline is misleading, which is poor journalist integrity. Both malice and ignorance can sink a ship.

            Intent is irrelevant. Biden’s comment and the staffer’s letter correlate (A relationship or connection between two things based on co-occurrence or pattern of change). It is implied (To make evident indirectly) that Biden is disregarding the wishes of the staffers. If you can’t comprehend this, I can’t help you read gooderer.

        I mean… Isn’t the point of the headline to concisely represent the article? That’s the entire reason clickbait is considered bad.

          Yes, the information in the article is unimportant because the headline is cumbersome. /s
