    Every time, even NPR. Clickbait can suck it.

    Thanks for saving the click.

      At least they said it in the first sentence of the first paragraph. The real clickbate assholes hide that info deep into the body of the article.

        Good call-out. Those kinds are so annoying, and accomplish nothing. I just jump 2/3 down the page and scan for the word and leave when I found it. They got 0 impressions, 0 clicks, and wasted their bandwidth serving up the junk.
