Yes, it was a headline which did not swear; it only appeared to. Not a good counter example :/ It danced around 'the line' a little, intelligently, which is very common for light hearted sections of even very serious publications. It gets a few smiles, and people are not 'offended' - they just move on if they didnt like it, provided it isnt over-done.
