Default "Kasparov Retails Title on a Draw": Does this headline doanything to increase interest in chess?

Please let me know if you see this doing ANYTHING at all to help chess
in any way. *Ok, maybe draws aren't the problem, but are they part of
the solution?

"Retails"? What does that mean? Was the title for sale?
