Lafaucheuse 4,073 Posted October 4, 2022 I don't understand her headline on the front page : is there any reference that I don't have ? I don't get it… There would have been so many catching headlines such as : "the devil got his due", "she won't come home (a dying woman)", "She got caught" or "End of the Lynn" for example… 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MortalCaso 1,640 Posted October 4, 2022 End of the Lynn is by far the best one. Good one @Lafaucheuse 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a song from the sixties or seventies that went Loretta are you better are you well, well well... Edit: My memory failed me.

Joey Russ 7,263 Posted October 4, 2022 It’s literally just rehashing an older headline (in this case it’s reusing the one Etta James had). They seem to be doing more of that lately (Gorby rehashing Castro is another)… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drewsky1211 4,813 Posted October 5, 2022 Decided to use Chrome's "Inspect" tool in an attempt to write an obit before anyone complains. You too, can do this if you know HTML (it'll only appear on that one tab and revert to normal when you refresh the page). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,844 Posted October 5, 2022 Worth noting that Loretta Lynn was the earliest inductee of the County Music Hall of Fame who was still living. She was inducted in 1988. That title now goes to Willie Nelson, 89, who was inducted in 1993. The other living inductees from the 1990s are Brenda Lee, 77 (1997), Bud Wendell, 95 (1998), and Dolly Parton, 76 (1999). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
