This. This is super important to keep in mind.

Thank you for the reminder.

We have to remember that often, articles of "information" present themselves as such, when in reality, they're intentionally manipulative (in terms of misleading titles, etc.) simply to profit from human behavior (manipulates attention -> clicking). Sad that this is what the news & media industry has devolved into.

They are driven by their own needs for people to click. Not needs to share accurate or new information... but rather, they must simply do enough to keep their lights on, regardless of presence of merit.
