I found the headline misleading because the phrase Signal security failure (with no quotes) could be incorrectly interpreted as Signal’s security failure instead of what it actually is, the Trump administration’s security failure. It’s not Signal’s fault that the Trump administration is incompetent, and the headline writer should have been more careful to make this clear.
Nope, it’s not. The part saying “the only glitch in two months” is indicated as a quote, but overall the title sounds like there’s a security issue in Signal and Trump chose to dismiss it because it’s the only glitch in the last two months.
Trump told NBC News that Goldberg’s presence in the chat had “no impact at all” on the military operation, and defended Waltz, claiming that the leak was “the only glitch in two months, and it turned out not to be a serious one”, as the White House sought to downplay the incident.
Y’all really need to learn to read the article before having a false opinion on it.
Alright, fair. I see your point now. Sorry to come out swinging like that. I think I misunderstood what you were trying to say originally.
The “security failure” was in government operatives using unsecured modes of communication. Signal itself did not have a security failure, the US government did.
The bit about it being a “”“glitch”“” is a direct quote though (and a bold faced lie by the president).
All good. It’s just an unnecessary punch against Signal. Especially journalist rely heavily on it, so I don’t know what the intention was with this title.
What’s up, buddy? Why the sudden silence? Or did you finally realize that “Signal security failure” was never something someone said and it was actually just something the author came up with?
It’s clearly indicated as a quote.
The headline isn’t misleading. It isn’t leading at all, which is part of the problem actually.

There are no quotes. So it is not something Trump said. It was interpreted by the author of the news story.

And where exactly do you see “Signal security failure” in the quoted text?

There are absolutely quotes. No wonder media literacy is shit.
Single quotes are AP style in America for quotes within quotes and in headlines.
Single quotes are fully acceptable as quotes in other places. Like Englishland.
Tell me you are dense, without telling me you are dense. You can’t make this shit up 🤣
I’m not going to further teach grammar.
Look around, there should be plenty of Nazis around, though I doubt many of them remember high school English either.

Sure sure. Oh. About the quotes. Do you mind sharing a screenshot of the quotes you are talking about?
