Gee, what is it with headline writers? You only have to read a couple of sentences of Lindelof calls 'Lost' fans "toxic" to find out that he didn't.

Trying to capture attention. It's like the latest Esquire cover with a hot blonde chick shaving her chin, though at least they do it ironically by saying, "OK, now we've got your attention, important story about U.S. soldiers in Iraq..."

Someone did the same thing to Neil Gaiman when he said that he didn't think that J. K. Rowling had plagiarized The Books of Magic: the headline said exactly the opposite.

Eh, their business, as brewsternorth says, is to capture attention. When the truth isn't sexy enough in their opinion, a "close enough" falsehood is sometimes employed. It's reprehensible and sophomoric, and spanking such behaviour is an editorial responsibility. Sadly, even the big dogs in the media business these days aren't are well behaved as they ought.

I'm not so sure. I'm a Lost fan and I'm reasonably sure ingesting me would kill .
