Default OT? Headline writer's dilemma

More from my news aggregator.

Current headline was* "First Black Lesbian Elected Mayor of Chicago".

"First Black Elected Mayor of Chicago" was taken in 1983 when Harold
Washington was elected.

"First Female Elected Mayor of Chicago" was taken in 1979 when Jane
Byrne was elected.

"First Gay Mayor of Chicago" was never a headline because no one knew
for sure.

So, the headline writer had to come up with something. You have to
wonder, though, if those are the most important facts about
Mayor-Elect Lori Lightfoot.

*I can't link to that headline because the articles and headlines
change from hour-to-hour.

They should have just said, “New Mayor to take office in Chicago.” That
said, the NYT seems to have been less sensational.

You did post an “OT” warning, so no foul.
