This is just clickbait, pure and simple. The internet is trending towards "You won't believe what this kitten did!" or "7 reasons why the internet just can't today" or "See if we can guess your age by which pokemon you like!" clickbait bullshit. Buzzfeed and sites like it are making money hand over fist for polarizing (verb) topics and inciting emotional responses that prompt people to share on their FB timelines. That guy is no more a journalist than I am by writing this paragraph.
That's true. I go on yahoo all the time for some strange reason. About 95% of it is clickbait, the other 5 is genuine news.
It's always "you'll never guess what this man did to this woman" or "find out what annoyed so and so". And inevitably you're mildly intrigued and have nothing better to do in work, so you end up clicking that shit and "FUCK SAKE THEY GOT ME AGAIN".
