If the headline is factually wrong, it doesn't matter whether you agree with it or not.


Original title "buried the lede" and was too long for HN, so I edited it.

It may be useful to see how others linked to this news - the original place I found this was at Engadget, which had this title: "Some Amazon and Max cartoons may have been partially animated in North Korea" https://www.engadget.com/some-amazon-and-max-cartoons-may-ha...

Which linked to Reuters: "North Koreans may have helped create Western cartoons, report says" : https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/north-koreans-may...

I linked the original report, which makes no mention of animation, but is the obvious focus of the article. The point isn't who did the outsourcing, but what was done, IMO.

The length limit on HN titles sometimes makes nuance difficult - maybe I should have added "may have been outsourced" instead. I was not going for clickbait/misrepresentation.


But it's not. The original headline was just vague, and HN tends to ignore headlines that are too abstract or vague.
