May?

At 10.00 p.m. these are the three top headlines at cnn.com:

Dubious Fox report may have led Trump to attack Obama

Soccer team may need to learn to scuba dive to escape

Embattled FBI agent may ignore House subpoena

It's not that big of a deal but I was stuck by the triple use of the word "may." It makes all three headlines sound tentative (or wishy-washy.) I'm curious to see if they're still there in the morning.
