        People just don’t read enough anymore to read titles correctly.

        • One of the people who didn’t read the title correctly.

          I didn’t say that was it’s title but general when referring to something you can use “the” proceeding it, like “the Brooklyn bridge”. Or like “door from THE titanic sold for…” You wouldn’t say “door from titanic sold for …”

          When you WOULD phrase it like that is when ‘Titanic’ is a title and you are referencing it in a headline.

            I knew this from basic grammar lessons in grade school. I didn’t even graduate high school. I’m a bit sad this needs to be explained.

              It’s a Us based publication you silly goose, why wouldn’t they use proper grammar for that context?

              Get out of here with that incivility
