"In marketing, there is war for attention. It's the only thing that matters. Attention, not impression" - @Garyvee
This should be expanded to - And the only way to grab attention is push the most atrocious stories. People are nothing if not curious about stuff. Specially the ones which align to their world view.

Not too long ago they had Greenwald releasing the Snowden leaks. Now they're mainly good for pushing an orthodox progressive viewpoint, with a staff of vapid columnists like Valenti and Penny.
