    Thats what happens when you have algorithms promote content based on click-through rate and engagement metrics. Creators have to use click-bait and sensationalism to get their content to spread. Its common knowledge at this point. I can’t think of any sizable creators that don’t use this, and generally the more they abuse it, the larger the channel.
