The question you have to ask yourself is “What does it mean?” Will readers understand what “Greece Defaults” entails? If not, then it’s the journalists job to write something else.

A semantic argument won’t help you there. If it were my job to write articles about the situation I certainly wouldn’t pick “Greece Defaults” as a headline. I would mention the default in the body and explain what that actually means. Context. Not all defaults are created equal. And that’s actually kinda sorta important.
