 Posted: Tue Nov 23, 2010 6:14 pm Post subject: Question about a newspaper headline |
 |
|
Hello,
Surfing the Net, I have come across a newspaper headline like "Rapid response plan a disaster zone," and I wonder about its syntactic structure.
Is it Rapid response plan for a disaster zone or Rapid response plan is a disaster zone or Rapid response plan and a disaster zone or what? Please anybody help me with this.
The headline is from www.theaustralian.com.au/news/health-science/rapid-response-plan-a-disaster-zone/story-e6frg8y6-1225851779574.
Thanks in advance. |

Because the first line of the article is "Australia is woefully unprepared for medical emergencies following a catastrophic event," I would go with "Rapid response plan is a disaster zone." |
