The Christian Post Has The World’s Worst Headline (Yes, Even Worse than TGC)
We like the Christian Post as much as the guy, even if reporters like Leonardo Blair routinely farm our content without giving us the courtesy of a Twitter follow, and even though they frequently don’t differentiate between genuine believers and two-fold sons of God, but a recent headline from the prominent magazine is about the worst we’ve ever seen.
With an article written by Ryan Foley, who may or may not have titled the post, we read:
‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ movie faces allegations of blasphemy.
Yeah. You think?
In other related news, Playboy’s new film Gay Pirates and The Hunt for Black Beard’s Booty faces allegations of encouraging immodesty, Planned Parenthood faces allegations of child endangerment, and Hamas faces allegations of anti-jewish microagressions.
The article goes on to explain “The new superhero movie “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which hit theaters in the United States last week, is facing blasphemy allegations from social media influencers because one of the main characters repeatedly refers to himself as “Marvel Jesus” while the other is crucified on screen.”
We sympathize with the Post’s desire to capitalize on the flick’s popularity and the cultural zeitgeist for clicks, but the article’s thinness is particularly egregious and noteworthy.
If Christian Post is going to be the big dog in town with some societal pull and sway, they really need to do better than that.
