You forgot a crucial part: reversing the original title.

"No, NYC is NOT playing second fiddle to silicon valley"

And then, for bonus karma, leave a comment to the effect of "The answer to any headline ending in a question mark is no. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge%27s_law_of_headlines ", as if you're the first and only person to have ever heard of it.


Remember to include a snide remark with a vague reference to some sort of a logical fallacy, in order to demonstrate your superior mastery of logic. Bonus points for using pompous latin expressions.

Let's downvote those perfunctory mentions of Betteridge's Law (and similar). (I already do.)


Sorry, missed that bit yeah :)
