Masters of the Obvious

Is headline writer that difficult a job? Check these out:

Bin Husin May Have Been Planning Attacks

"Police found more than 30 bombs in the hide-out of a Southeast Asia terror ringleader shot to death during a raid by an elite security unit, triggering speculation he was planning more attacks, authorities said Thursday."

Why the 'may' in the headline -- he held on to the bombs for sentimental reasons? He was planning one heck of a stage show for the comeback tour of Great White? Whose speculating, experts? Sheesh a la Beef, what ninnies are writing this stuff.
