> Is the BBC writing more clickbait headlines than ever? continue reading to find out more! I notice this more and more, along with promotion of clearly trivial stories to the front page - is a banal and contrived tweetstorm about Trump/race/trans/gender/tax issues justifiably worth elevating above a story like Venezuela, or rampant knife crime, or any number of other inconvenient yet important stories about which the BBC chooses to avert its eyes? I believe that much of what is motivating their current direction seems to be desperate fear of becoming irrelevant in a changing media landscape (an existential threat given that with falling engagement the license fee would eventually become untenable), hence their degeneration into a crumby buzzfeed simulacra. Another reliable institution subverted and going down the tubes, hey ho.
