The news has been reduced to the click. Both reporters and readers are frustrated by sensationalist headlines from outlets like Upworthy, Buzzfeed and The Huffington Post.
This hack allows news outlets to face the clickbait challenge head on. We've built a website prototype with 3 sections:
- Asks users to vote "Sensational" vs. "Conventional" / shows who's winning the poll.
- Game-ify's the art of writing a headline.
- Shares a wall of user generated headlines for news outlets to share with viewers/readers.
