Lawyer says lawsuit is about greed, says the headline.
It's about avarice, says the article. So is it greed or avarice?
The lawyer is paid, or over-paid, by the syllable. Big words make him sound smart.
The paper simplifies "avarice" to "greed" -- same meaning -- because headline readers may be a bit thick.
It's only a small change. What other "small" changes does the paper make when reporting "facts"?
