I don’t think distorting is the right term as the HN title is the subtitle for the article.
- 1vuio0pswjnm7 5y agoYes, but without the title preceding it, the statement loses its context. It baffles me when people want to override authors on titles. Sure, sometimes it might make sense to do so, but most of the time the author is the person in the best position to present and explain what she has written.
- _aavaa_ 5y ago"The Monopoly On Your Mind, Part 1: Consolidation Craze & Illusion of Choice" I don't see what context this adds.
- 1vuio0pswjnm7 5y agoI do. If this was the HN title I would not necessarily think about Big Tech. Then when I began reading the blog post I would quickly see it is about media consolidation and the decline of local news, not about Big Tech intermediary (middleman) control over the delivery of media that some other entity has produced. This is only Part 1, so there may be more about Big Tech in Parts 2 and 3.
