    Between a decade+ on reddit and now here on lemmy I’ve learned most of the time when someone’s whining about a headline or insinuating that the media is purposefully misleading they’re just upset that headlines don’t contain the entire article. Which is obviously a very stupid criticism. It’s surprisingly common but it’s stupid all the same.

      i dunno. I have read a lot of articles that could be summed up with a decent headline. They really puff up the articles these days with pointless words.
