Headlines using "Butcher" making reference to a serial killer are much more common than headlines using "butcher" to talk about an actual butcher, amirite?

Generally speaking, the fact someone has killed multiple people will normally take precedence in the media over the fact that Sam the butcher makes a great sausage.

The real question is why do people refer to doing a task poorly as "butchering" it ? Butchering is a fairly complicated profession and takes skill to master.

Why would there be a headline talking about an actual butcher?
