...I figured an Upworthy headline was the best way of drawing attention to the report of the Presidential Commission on Election Administration I don't know if this qualifies as clever. If people are starting to react against the style, then it may not be the best way of drawing attention. Heck, the "Presidential Commission on Election Administration" probably deserves a fresh angle rather than a hackneyed one, since the topic sounds deathly boring (like Upworthy stories tend to be).
