The [online](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/12/us/nsa-shadow-brokers.html?ref=todayspaper) version of the article doesn’t have the same subheadline, but it’s right there on my paper copy. Have they ever done anything like that before? ---

Yes, the NYT online version will constantly A/B headlines over time or as the news evolves. The original headline will be in the URL slug and you can go to a bunch of articles to see how the URL differs from the current headline. ---

I meant have they ever outright said the world was in danger before. ---

What’s the difference between the New York Times, the New York Post, and The New Yorker? Because I’m pretty sure that when I read all the politically themed articles that people get upset about, I’m not sure which is who and why, and I am missing something important when I do. ---

The New Yorker is a magazine by and for snobs. The New York Times is a newspaper by and for liberals. The New York Post is a tabloid by and for lunatics. The Post is my favorite of the three. Regards, Shodan ---
