Subtle indeed. I'd like to think I have a good eye for these things. But last week, I found myself scratching my head several times while flipping through the New York Times.

What's different? I asked myself. Has the headline type changed?

I decided it hadn't.

It had.

On the Media has the story.

Shameless self-promotion. I'll be talking about Little People today from 3:15 to 3:45 p.m. (local time) on Total Health, on KCTE Radio (AM 1510) in Kansas City, and -- locally -- tonight on New England Cable News' NewsNight sometime between 8 and 9 p.m.
