New Media and News Professionals.

When talking about social media metrics and retweets, I informed them that they were mistaken in thinking that a social media share is a share of their article, rather than a share of a headline, and that the more retweetable the headline, the less it needs any article behind it at all, because users have already imagined the article in their head and already agree with it. If you reward articles based on metrics like retweets, you’re better off not bothering with the journalism part!

Btw: Why is the usage of those ugly rant comics “characters” still a thing? I despise those with deep affection since their inception and in my eyes they needlessly and instantly thwart even the best presentation.

Not one of the studies found that cash grants increase tobacco and alcohol consumption and many found that they lead to a reduction. The researchers also conducted a meta-analysis—a statistical technique for combining the results from across studies—and again found that, overall, receiving cash slightly reduced tobacco and alcohol consumption.
