The PRISM letter Google, Yahoo, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft are sending Congress

Why was the title cropped here? If you're going to explicitly name companies don't you think all should be named? The title is implying other companies (i.e. Microsoft, Yahoo, Twitter, etc.) aren't a part of this. Maybe it should've been along the lines of "major tech companies including..."

Edit: The title has since been updated.

There are nearly 50 companies or organizations signing the letter. That would make for a pretty damn unwieldy headline.

The poster updated the title. I would agree with you but article's title named 5 companies and the poster's title named 3. Either copy the title in it's entirety or don't name any companies.

You can always use a headline like "Google, Apple, Facebook and 50 others like this"
