Wouldn't be the first time a politician realized they couldn't un-say something. Choose your words carefully next time.

Okay, I give up ... what the fuck are you talking about now?

The only way I could post the the article was with heading unchanged from link. Get it? I've nothing to unsay. Read what I wrote and not what you wanted me to write.

For fuck's sake.

It'll auto-fill the title but you can edit it. Alternatively, if you title the post before adding a link, it'll won't set the title automatically.

Alternatively, it's also common to make a regular "post" (not "link") and the include the news article in the body of the post.

Here's a "link" with an edited title:

I'm done with lunch and gotta run, but I'll try one more time heading out the door: regarding your point about me not editing the headline or putting it in as a regular post .... I am not allowed to.

That's the same as "I am not allowed to."

Take me at my word.

I agree that you can't edit a post title after it's been posted. I accept your word there.

You have to change the title from the default before hitting submit on the original post.

No, I'm not ALLOWED. I don't have the mod's permission to do so. It's a permission thing, it isn't about otherwise available methods.
