Default Battle of the Headlines

NYT @ 8:30 AM

Quote:
G.D.P. Grows at Tepid 1.9% Pace Despite Stimulus
sub lead - "The economy grew less than expected from April to June, the government said on Thursday, and it shrank in the final months of 2007, dimming the outlook for a quick recovery."

http://nytimes.com/

The Washington Post @ 8:30 AM

Quote:
U.S. Economy Grows at Healthy Pace in Quarter
sub lead - "Rise in gross domestic product boosted by strong exports and rising consumer spending, driven by government stimulus checks."

http://www.washingtonpost.com/

No matter the real story, it's funny to see two of the nation's largest newspapers with such divergent headlines on the same news story.
