The headlines are the worst thing to only read. Sometimes they're flat out wrong and other times you're being lead by the nose. Headlines are for an emotional response and/or propaganda.

If you read the first 3 paragraphs, that's usually okay. If it seems like they're fluffing it up, then try 3/4's of the way down and skim the last paragraph.
