5 days agoThis article is fascinating in its choice of headlines. It briefly mentions the headline quote, and then goes on to primarily talk about the number of journalists who were killed last year. It was just an article about a conference the pope spoke at, but i really thought it’d be about something else before i read it. Successful clickbait, i guess???
I wonder if there are a number of people who will always read an article if the pope is mentioned, so if he’s related to a topic even a little bit, he gets to be in the headline.
