A rewarding clash of headlines

The Boston Globe and the Worcester Telegram & Gazette may both be owned by the New York Times Co. But their copy desks certainly didn’t see eye to eye when it came to writing a headline for an AP story on those annoying rewards cards. To wit:

• “Studies say rewards cards can pay off for consumers” (T&G)
• “Cards that promise you points and cash back might not be all that rewarding” (Globe)

Since I’ve already got more than enough crap that I carry in my wallet, I’ll go with the Globe.
