Having worked as a sort of journalist (stringer for a local paper, contributing middles) when I was a student, I can confirm that the web and print editions are likely to have different headlines for a lot of reasons, such as for example typesetting during a print run uses different fonts than on the web.  Did the actual article change from the print to the web edition?

It is really wierd! Check this out: http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2014/01/how-the-us-almost-killed-the-internet/
