The New York Times is not a news site I regularly read, but I see quite a different set of headlines highlighted on the front page:
Johnson, With His Job Under Threat, Gets a Lifeline From Trump
Biden Wipes Out Another $7.4 Billion in Student Loan Debt
5 People Killed in Stabbing at Busy Mall in Sydney, Australia
Campaign Puts Trump and the Spy Agencies on Collision Course
Republican Women Are Divided on Abortion as Bans Spread
Ocasio-Cortez Never Steered Money to a Key Arm of Her Party. Until Now.
You also list one of these (the last), but the others seem fairly standard things that a newspaper would report, and not clickbait rubbish at all.
- valleyer 2y agoI agree that they write a lot of normal headlines, like most of the ones you list. I take issue with the last one (and others like it) because of its intentional coyness in an attempt to get you to click through. I've been seeing this more and more from them lately, and the kindest thing I can say about it is that it does not befit a newspaper like theirs.
