Seems weird that if someone links to a news site, that the news site gets to double-dip advertising revenue, since it gets to advertise on its own site, and also get a cut of the advertising revenue of someone that linked to them. It will either mean everyone will want to classify themselves as news sites, or, people that link to them will no longer want to drive revenue via ads.

The aggregators sucked a lot of the juice out from the properties themselves. https://www.theonion.com/report-we-don-t-make-any-money-if-you-don-t-click-the-1823460398 https://www.theonion.com/report-we-don-t-make-any-money-if-y...
