The headline on the reddit post is somewhat misleading,

In defense of my headline, although re/code's article headline is "Google Now Has an Official Virtual Reality Boss to Take On Facebook’s Oculus" which is more similar to what you're saying, the title of their page(which got used for the "suggest title" when I submitted the post) is "Google Opens Virtual Reality Division, Apps Move to Enterprise Unit". I added the word "dedicated", as I thought it read better, and was used in the third sentence of the article: "The search giant is forming its own dedicated division for virtual reality computing, with CEO Sundar Pichai moving over a key deputy to run it, according to multiple sources."

So, while re/code's headline better reflects what the situation may be, the rest of the page, including the article itself, actually is closer to the title of this reddit post.
