It's a terrible headline. But it isn't racist. |

The editor already apologized and seemed genuinely shocked that it was taken as racist. |

Keeping Score wrote: If anything, it's offensive because it treats a tragedy with a headline borrowed from a one star horror movie. Other than that I seriously don't get it. Do Asians say "Fright" instead of "Flight" or something? I'm perplexed. So you're not familiar with Mickey Rooney's work?
