Cry wolf enough times and you just start getting ignored though. I can't say I ever click on any Business Insider or the Verge articles anymore regardless of title.


It would be awesome to have a reference list of examples to demonstrate how twisted headlines from major sources really are. Any come to mind?


Verge has anti big tech bias. anti amazon anti Tesla, anti anything or anyone that is big and successful or rich.


Really? I'd say the opposite. They love tech. That's the bread and butter of what they cover. Any anti-articles are due to the fact that that is almost all they cover.


The Verge and other Vox publications definitely do push an anti-tech angle is it's digestible by the populace.


This only makes sense of people who do enough research to realize it's false information. A lot of people just care if the headline fits their own narrative.

If people would ignore fake news, we wouldn't have so much misinformation issues, people biting the onion and flat earthers.
