I mean, the core of what you’re saying I will admit is sorta accurate – I’m knee-jerking a response that may or may not be reasonable. A lot of it has to do with me seeing a pattern of weirdly Biden-shade-throwing stories on Lemmy, not that this one article or headline is anything wild or unreasonable.
But I will say, on CNBC’s side, it would be easy (and more accurate) to just write a story “Here are the reasons behind inflation” without tangentially bringing up the theory that Biden’s involved, and without bringing polls of people who may or may not have a clue what they’re talking about anywhere into it.
Or even just “Businesses are the cause of inflation” if they want to skip the clickbait and get to the point.
Could be worse, though. We could pendulum swing to the full extent of clickbait and make something like “Have beef with Biden? Wait until you hear the truth behind higher prices.”
What are you on about? This is the original title of this article from CNBC.
Headlines from newspapers can be propaganda too.
