You can't offer a better headline. And you admit its not misleading. Take L and move on. I'm not going to search. It's your argument to prove. I feel it's accurate. It's not misleading; the title is accurate.

It, misleading, means to be deceptive, imo, the headline is not deceptive.

Edit also trying to change what you originally said. You didn't say it wasn't implicit.

I can I wanted you to say that first.

This one is more explicit: https://coloradosun.com/2024/09/12/homecoming-photo-shooting/

This one leaves out details but isnt leading: https://www.denverpost.com/2024/09/11/jefferson-county-teen-shot-homecoming-pictures/

I also saw a number of worse article titles, so overall I'd say this one in this post is about a 5/10 on the misleading scale, not tricky to figure out but still could be better.
