    So they use the word often, because its often used by them? Pretty ass backwards, but also makes sense for sensationalist “journalism”

      I don’t see how it’s backwards, the word drives clicks and is commonly used. It’s unfortunate but most journalism has to be profit-motivated to survive these days.
