What's wrong with this headline: "Attacked reality star left for dead" (Daily Telegraph 26/10/11)?
Been there, done that: unemployed pantheist, failed psychopath, abusive iconoclast. I've stumbled on some knowledge the clever people forgot or lost or never knew. Click here for CONTENTS or pick your poison from the cloud below.

To me, it reads awkwardly. Then of course, there's the fact that there should be no such thing as a reality "star." As a proofreader, I would correct it to "Reality star attacked, left for dead."
Hi Faycin, yes I had in mind "reality star". Boiling it down to its essentials: "an unknown, well-known person".
Whether this contradiction-in-terms is interesting or significant enough to warrant being posted in a blog, is another matter!
Thanks for stopping by.

Or it could be a star, that in reality was a massive, luminous ball of plasma held together by gravity. It was attacked by a black hole and gravitationally collapsed resulting in death.
Hi Karen, yes I had that one coming! Well warranted -- thanks! hehehe, or even: ;-)
