Another Misleading Headline

Here's the headline at RushLimbaugh.com

Obama Loses His Cool with White College Kids

Now, that headline would make you think Obama was in a room full of white college kids and he got angry for some reason and screamed at them.

Now, that's just the headline on the website. When you read the transcript of it, Rush does make it clear what he's talking about - that white college students no longer think Obama is "cool." But that headline is very deceptive.
RUSH: There's a story in the stack today: Obama's no longer cool with white kids on campus. He's lost his cool. White college guys don't think Obama's got it anymore. He's not cool. They don't know why. They don't know why they thought he was in the first place. (interruption) They thought he was gonna help 'em get girls just by being on his team? The girls liked Obama so the boys did? Oh, give me a break! Well, obviously it didn't work because if liking Obama helped the guys get anywhere with the girls, they'd still like him. Obviously it didn't work.

The actual headline from the article itself, which is at the DailyMailOnline (an English paper):

Obama losing the youth vote 'because white students don't think he's cool anymore'
