Journalists used to use the inverted pyramid for a reason. Direct marketers reversed that principle to create what evolved into clickbait. So clickbait, to me, automatically implies the opposite of journalism (advertising and/or propaganda) .

Think about what we did in Ireland in the 80s. It's no different, and it only worked marginally. Although that cpuld be because opsec was pretty good among the provisional IRA active cells.
