Headline Referred to Trailers, Not Residents

In some Thursday editions, a headline on a story about illegal travel trailers said "Kenner targeting 'trailer trash'." The phrase "trailer trash" was not used by anyone quoted in the story and was not intended in the headline to refer to Kenner residents living in FEMA trailers. The headline referred to the trailers themselves.
