How about this for a Crimson lede?

North Korea’s alleged nuclear test this week occurred deep underground in a mountain tunnel in the North Hamgyong Province, but in its aftermath, the world’s eyes are on Harvard Square.

Um...no. They really aren't.

Hmmm... maybe the Yale Daily News will respond to the Crimson piece by publishing an investigative piece as to why the media aren't soliciting their institution for experts :-).

How about today's headline: "Plane Crashes into Soph’s Building." No, it is not a story about something that happened at Winthrop House. It is the Crimson's coverage of the Lidle tragedy, carrying the sub-headline: Single-engine aircraft piloted by Yankee pitcher hits one floor above student’s condo. Here's the question: what is the cure for this level of narcissism?
