Most of these clickbait celeb articles are farmed out to freelancers who write for 10-15 cents a word. The draft article then goes through "edit," which used to be a real thing but is more of a formality now. Internet sites hire "editors" who are mostly 23-year-old college whores. Remember that pic of the HuffPo editorial staff? Those girls.
They do this for three reasons:
1. They're really cheap
2. They're dumber than a nigger glued to a toilet, so you can make them say or do anything and unlike the crusty old men who used to work as editors, they have zero standards or integrity to get in the way
3. Media outlets are owned by Jews, who can't get a blowjob from a blonde unless they're offering mythical career advancement in exchange
So what happens after I write an article is that it goes to the sluts for edits and revisions. I really can't stress hard enough how goddamned stupid these girls are, even though they're all working toward a graduate degree in literature or some shit. All they know about the world is that it's full of racism and they'll be the generation that changes it for the better.
When the bimbos are done with the edits, every one of my articles looks like Farmer Joe shot it up with a scatter gun. There are typos and misspellings galore, tons of weird punctuation, somebody has clearly run a find/replace bot across it for offending words, and there's an extra paragraph about how People of Color (POC) are affected most by illegal file downloads or whatever I'm writing about. When I used to complain, they would just offer to take my byline off the article.
Gradually I came to hate them, and now I'm on /pol/, praying for nuclear winter.
