What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorFox News reports a prehistoric burial site has stunned archaeologists with a remarkable discovery. That is the whole headline.
Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo what did they find?
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt doesn't say. It says stunned, and it says remarkable, and then it stops.
Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentStunned and remarkable, and not one noun. Whoever wrote it got the whole way through a sentence about a burial site without saying what was in it.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo the archaeologists dug it up, and the headline put it back.
