It's only good to be distasteful if it's witty and funny.

Remember the 80's, when you said something really stupid and only 1 or 2 people knew about it?

In fairness to Rossi, I don't think the story authors usually write the story headlines. But he's still at fault for both failing to realize that is a very dumb headline, and for promoting it anyway.
