The actual article is constructed poorly, leaving one to wonder if the Olympic hopefuls in Omaha fleeing were then responsible for the Iowa deaths. Sad to think the gravity of the situation is overshadowed by shoddy writing and editing.

Oh, gosh, I couldn’t read an article with that headline. You can tell it’s the weekend — the kids have the helm while mom and dad take a nap.

My week was like that, what with being sick and all. I had a hard time sleeping so I followed your link and discovered the leading paragraph was actually worse than the headline.
Of course, it pales in comparison to some of the stuff I read elsewhere online. Stuff that I used to edit and wanted to gouge my eyes out after reading for more than two minutes.
