NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft has experienced a computer glitch that’s causing a bit of a communication breakdown between the 46-year-old probe and its mission team on Earth.

    So the title did its job which is you understand nothing until you enter their site, drive traffic, display ads, and possibly collect your data in the process.

      Sure and Lemmy did its work by letting me and others relay the info. I hate ads as much as the next guy, especially targeted ads, but the internet is free and I don’t pay CNN a dime so I’ll take the hit for you this time. Next time, you click the clickbait and fill us in ☺️

      Ads are a shitty part of the internet experience, but what exactly is your point here…?

        My point is the title in journalism went from a summary of the story to a confusing false statement that might give you a hint of what the story is about.

        In this story the title is clearly saying Voyager has stopped communicating with Earth which is false.

          This is what we get when nobody wants to pay for news anymore. The fact that news media had to turn to ad-funded models is the fault of everybody who refuses to pay for their news

            The main issue here isn’t ads. The issue is straight up false titles.

            I understand if they opted for vague summary. But false statement is where i draw the line.

              And the reason why they have to resort to clickbait titles is to get people on their site for ad views

                Clickbait and false statements are two different things.

                If I write a title saying “Joe Biden resigned” and then talk about how most Americans wants Joe to resign this is considered a false statement.

                But if I write “Americans wants only one thing” then this is a clickbait.
