Discussion: White House Supports Bans On Gay Conversion Therapy

Discussion for article #235160

I totally hate the phraseology of any headline that uses the words ‘supports’ and ‘bans’ side-by-side one another in a sentence. Forces me have to do a double take, and over-think how two diametrically opposed words can really make sense. Its just confusing and unnecessary, especially before I’ve had my morning coffee.

Why not just say ‘White House Does Not Support Gay Conversion Therapy’? Is that so hard?

Oh, and I applaud the WH on this.
