... and even the negative comments (when someone takes the time to comment) benefit those like him who post click bait and outrage bait or nothingburger bait. Isn't it strange that he, and others like him (Meidas touch, I'm looking at you) so viciously decried and criticized MSM for not getting to the point, and for teasing viewers so that they stuck around through the commercial breaks, are now doing the very thing that they would chide cable and network news for doing. It's all about the algorithms and the engagement factor... NOT the quality of what they're feeding us any more.

Sigh.
