>To be fair, the title doesn't say it will tell you why the suicide rate in Greenland is so high...
It is highly suggestive that it will though.
> Fact is, it isn't completely clear why the rate is so high.
Then why bother writing an article about it at all ?
> And yes, sometimes you need to know just the bare facts.
No, I always want just the bare facts. Anything else simply isn't relevant. You may call it "well researched human interest" I call it filler material. It feels like a high-school kid trying to make the minimum word count for an essay.
- deathcakes 11y agoSounds like a pretty empty way to approach life. You've never considered that reading more around a subject than just the facts might open the way to greater insight? Or are you genuinely of the opinion that everything in life can be expressed in bullet point format?
- dwaltrip 11y agoA short list of facts doesn't tell the whole story. They are barren and lack deeper context. They can be understood academically, but sometimes that is shallow, clinical, and doesn't reveal the true nature of something, just a simplistic, factoid level idea of it. A story is a series of facts, but can provide a richer understanding sometimes, as one can build a cohesive picture in their mind.
