WTF, Reuters?! Reuters runs a story about the Thessaloniki (Greece) city water company joining with a wine-producer and bottling company to produce bottled water with the headline Greek Thessaloniki Sewerage in bottled water JV. Did they think that was funny? Or what? Damn.

What a terrible headline. Ha!

Well, that's a lot of info to convey in a short headline... but yeah, someone probably thought it was funny.

I'm sure business people think "joint venture" when they see JV, but I thought "junior varsity."

Yeah, I'd have gone for that angle too.
