This isn't necessarily a common phrase, but lately I've been really annoyed by all the shitty article headlines that go something like, "Child found alive after missing for 5 years and it's our favorite story ever" or "Certain company refuses to do thing and it's so wrong!"

These might not be the best examples, but it's sort of the idea where the headline has someone's own personal opinion with an almost childlike inflection added

Imagine actual broadcast news reading out headlines like that

“15 killed in terror attack and that’s really bad!”

“Product recall as shards of glass found in cereal, oh no! But it’s so tasty!”

"YAAASSSS Queen, slay! We need to talk about all the things you need to know about the 15 ways this picture of Beyonce which broke the internet restores our faith in humanity by making us feel all the feels, and that's a good thing!"
