Department of Unfortunate Headlines

Picture 1.png

At Google News, if you click the top link to this story (about four scout leaders from Anchorage being electrocuted as they set up a tent at a scout jamboree last weekend), the NYT page that loads uses a much different headline ("Questions Remain as Scouts Try to Deal With Deaths"). I'm not sure if the headline attributed to NYT by Google comes from another source, or if NYT changed the head after someone caught the gaffe.
