The proof is that the sites get large numbers of repeat visitors and their articles get shared unironically on social media.
I mean creators of these sites make tens of thousands of dollars a month. That may be small potatoes in the grand scheme of things, but put all of them together and they make up a sizable portion of total Internet media readership.
