Two different stories.
Two different copywriters. Two different variants. You still don't make your case. "Baby daddy" can be merely an omission: "baby/daddy" works there. "Baby guardian" uses "baby" as a possessive adjective, like "baby milk" and "baby food".
Now let's look at you.
It wasn't a typo. The subject in question, the child of the former whore known as Anna Nicole Smith, is a story that somewhat parallels the rap lyrics. A child who's father is unknown because the mother was a drugged out skank. Such sloppy grammer may be ok on the likes of Jerry Springer and Star Magazine, but not from a supposedly respected news source like MSNBC.
Imagine if JimO were to write an article on the spacewalks of the past week entitled:
ISS crew working hard for they money.
tsk tsk
The subject in question, the child of the former whore known as Anna Nicole Smith, is a story that somewhat parallels the rap lyrics.
-The subject is not the child, but the identity of the child's father. Such sloppy and imprecise use of the language!
-Anna Nicole Smith is not a former whore. I will stipulate to the word "whore" even though I don't agree, but she isn't "former" because that means "retired". She's dead. The adjective is "late".
-The story of Anna Nicole does not parallel rap lyrics. Nobody got shot, and nobody beat her up. She slept around, drank and took pills. That's country music.
A child who's father is unknown because the mother was a drugged out skank.
-This is a sentence fragment. The subject, "a child", has no predicate.
-The word "who's" means "who is". You want "whose", the possessive.
-"Drugged out" needs a hyphen to make it an adjective.
-Care to give me an etymology on the high-class, high-caliber word "skank"?

-Grammar
-OK should be uppercase, though I can understand that you might have had your English corrupted by the pervasive use of the lower case in internet pop culture.
-Something can be "on Jerry Springer", but it has to be "in Star Magazine" because "in" is the preposition one uses with print media. Parallel constructions require proper prepositions.

No imagination needed. I would think that the copywriter who does his headlines forgot to use the grammar check, and that he made a lot fewer mistakes than you did.
You're very eager to attribute a narrow cause to grammatical, spelling and style mistakes in others. Would you care to account for your own?
