Thanks for your insight. I have actually given this a thought.
The first point is that the site is not posting super new content, but stuff that is already popular and has a fair bit of discussion around it.
Another thing is that I ran https://www.reddit.com/user/samacharbot2 https://www.reddit.com/user/samacharbot2 for quite some time and what would happen was many people never actually read the article but just made assumptions from the headline. The summary actually helped a lot and even became a starting point of discussion.
I agree that half baked information can be sometimes harmful than no information at all. Ideally how I'd like the website to be used is that people who find a summary interesting go and click the actual article.
Hope you understand my perspective.
- lintiness 10y agoIrish leader doesn’t regret calling Trump “racist and dangerous” that's not news.
- Eldt 10y agoGo into the reddit comments and you'll see how the article itself is a bit misleading as well
- lintiness 10y agor/news comments i avoid like the plague. i have that sub blocked on my front page (along with r/politics and "popular" candidate subs including but not limited to the bern, hillary, and trump). life's too short for any of that shit.
