There's a parallel between the headlines of articles on the internet and advertisements for products: the currency of the internet is attention/page views. It was unethical for people to advertise products as something they weren't, just as it's unethical to advertise a piece of content as something it's not: you're benefitting from deceiving the public. We got Truth in Advertising when they did it with physical products… maybe the same idea should be applied here.
