I think it was too show that "oh he was rich and probably caused the accident himself by driving too fast"
Cause you know... if you have a Ferrari you're probably going to drive fast
Fuck this editor
Based on the rest of the story....it kind of seems like he was driving his Ferrari way too fast.
Yeah I know but they didn't need to rub it in. He's dead now
I don't think it's exactly "rubbing it in." I think it's appropriate for NBC to point out this small detail in the headline, as it is a neutral detail which nevertheless colors the incident in a more appropriate light. Just saying "car crash" would lead more people to believe he was t-boned or something (most people only read the headline), when the truth seems to be that he made a very dangerous decision which unfortunately led to his death and the death of his passenger. Hopefully more Ferrari owners get the message, and they remember Vince before they decide to gun it down Angeles Crest Highway.
