It's so annoying that this gets misrepresented in all the news stories and discussions about this. I guess the non clickbait headline - "Google will let people WFH for 11 months regardless of offices reopening" is just not as appealing.
- mywittyname 6y agoPeople who hate clickbait headlines should start clicking the non-clickbait headlines. The authors themselves rarely have any control over the headlines and we know that all of the major publications are A/B/n testing various headlines for news, at minimum, and are most likely feeding that information back into some automated headline generator.
- dvirsky 6y agoNot to turn this into a meta discussion of the responsibility of media outlets, but they could have probably gotten better CTR with the headline "Top 10 celebrity boobs". There's a difference between phrasing headlines more dramatically and misrepresenting your story.
