Report: Headline Writer Can't Read

This morning I read online of the attack by terrorists who snuck underneath a Gaza border crossing and killed two Israeli soldiers and kidnapped another. The article very openly stated that Hamas took credit for the attack.

I just went on my computer again to see if anything, besides another great Tigers victory, happened today. I saw the following headline on Yahoo News: "Israel Blames Hamas for deadly attack". I immediately and naturally feared that another attack occurred since this morning. Once I read the article, I realized that it was the same attack. The article, from the Associated Press, of course accurately reports that Hamas took credit. This begs the question-Why the misleading headline? Writing that someone blames another implies that the accused's guilt is in question. There is no question here.
