If you're going to post a link, people, don't just quote the freaking headline, make some effort to tell folks what you're asking them to click through to. The contents, not the clickbait, please.

I'd also say I'm less inclined to click into "news stories" that are little more than tit-for-tat back and forth between people. Tell me what they're doing, not what they're saying. And if they're not doing anything, I don't need commentary on that. I'm not in this for the yuks or self-righteousness.

But do give us the links if you're giving a quote. Show your work.
