I was a subscriber to them in the month they launched. After the literal 10th time the headline was clickbait that disagreed with the body of the article, I unsubscribed. They are run by the former Cracked/BuzzFeed people and they clearly can’t help themselves but lie in headlines.
I never trust any headline blindly
Yea but their whole founding pitch was “we’re paid journalism so we won’t have to do sensationalism” was such a bait and switch :(
The irony is that Buzzfeed actually had some legitimately hard-hitting investigative journalism. They had multiple Pulitzer winners on their payroll. But that shit takes time and costs money, so they used the clickbait BS to pay the bills.
The frustrating thing about 404media is that it’s those same people and they are still doing the impressively in-depth research…and then boil it down to a catchy lie to get clicks and shares.
