Of course,I don't see the point of using Boeing in the headline. Robberies notwithstanding, the problems of addiction would have been the same for any one else, too.
Economical headline writing.
My question is are the drugs themselves to blame, or BigPharma who uses them with/without the knowledge of their pharmacological effects in the short and long term?
As in, "Purdue Pharma knowingly addicted millions of Americans to opioids."
(As an aside, in Spanish at least "suicide" is also a transitive verb in some cases, as in "The Roman emperor suicided the senator." This was because in Rome emperors would knowingly and deliberately create circumstances (credible threats for instance) that would leave the victim with effectively no choice but to do what many others in the same situation would do).
Maybe s/Boing/huge tech company/, but then it would be quite cumbersome, wouldn't it?
# Is it really a headline if it's not sensationalized nowadays?
Off topic, but I don't understand why the comma is there? Is there some English language rule dictating this one?
Maybe it was transcribed from something Christopher Walken said?
