oh c'mon, give El Gefe a break. Dude just puts in whatever news he can find, what makes the front page is what you guys view the most, so anything that isn't "news worthy" can simply not get as many views and fall into the news abyss.

If articles are truly determined by page views, then not having a misleading title would certainly be beneficial, as it'd reduce falsely inflated page counts.

Do you think a news article titled "Best Buy employee promises 5:00AM Black Friday shoppers will receive free old shit from overstock with regularly priced PS3" would get as many hits as "Sony releases new PS3 bundle?"
