Another language abuse in Agassi "scandal"

As I wrote in previous posts, newspapers like the seamy side of stories. Especially when they are bits of juicy details in them. Trumping-up facts isn't much when it comes down to making good headlines. French weekly "le Nouvel Observateur" was caught red-handed  in a article with the following headline  : "Agassi used crystal meth for years". Then contradicting itself  : "Agassi admitted taking crystal meths in 1997"
