"legal" in media companies. It's a loophole in law where if you phrase something as a question, you are not claiming as truth.

Say the media claims, "Your mom could be the murder suspect?" You are not technically saying yo mama is a murder suspect though it is implied so.

Media companies won't be prosecuted for any "wrong info" for such titles by law because it's a "question".

Same here for the blog post. It's framing as a question, not taking a responsibility that (though author implies so) he is claming MCP is a bad idea wihtout owning it.

It's worse than weasel phrases.
