        Are you saying the headline is written well?

        How did you get ‘written well’ from readable?

        It may be ahead of the curve on Lemmy, but anyone suggesting it’s well-written is out on a limb.

        I’m not the other person but yes I think it reads fine.

        To fit with how OP read it over would have to be replaced with of.

        I would like to call out OP for assuming everybody is EFL (English first language) as I like to have positive intent that people reading and confused by something might be ESL.

          I think OP was referring to “Leeds student jailed in Saudi Arabia for 34 years”…I agree that this sounds like the person was in jail for 34 years. In my opinion “jailed” should be replaced with “sentenced”
