Let’s be honest: With a headline like that, I’m going to read the story.
According to Jim Romenesko, Thursday’s paper ran a story about a Cincinnati physician who is losing his license because of multiple cases of sexual misconduct with his patients. But instead of saying something of that nature, the paper and author Anne Saker decided to run this juicy headline instead:
The story was about an obstetrician-gynecologist named Kurt Froehlich, who was accused of using his finger to show two of his patients the location of their G-spots and was also convicted of groping a medical assistant in his office. The State Medical Board of Ohio decided to permanently revoke his medical license as a result, but Froehlich has since appealed the decision.
Meanwhile, the paper has since changed the headline on its website to “Doctor loses license for inappropriately touching patients,” but thanks to social media, the printed version will live on forever.
No word if Hollywood plans on doing a movie on the once “well-liked and respected” gynecologist, but if they do, here’s to hoping they call it “Snatch Adams.”
