It’s too salacious for me to investigate and click on the blog. It’s either a deceiving title or exaggerated alarmism.
I agree. Personally, I'm just too lazy to click my mouse and attempt to verify the veracity of the source. I'd much rather type a thousand words or so about whether I think the source may be flaky or not than to check the article myself.
Why can't FR use only MSM sourced articles which unfortunately require excerpts? Maybe everyone would be happy. At least we wouldn't have to deal with those click-bait bloggers.

Dogsbite.org and its advocates are gone,
I’d happily see the Blogsbite.org people follow suit.
I don’t tell people what they should be allowed to click and what they should not click.
FReepers are grownups and can make the decision themselves.
Personally, I like to help allies and would much rather give them a click
to support their fledgling efforts than to give clicks to MSM propaganda outfits.
In this case the poster has brought information to us that, in light to some of the responses, was unknown..
ie... that Pelosi was there putting her irrelevant Joan Hancock on the bill.
Yet again I am reminded of a quote from C.S Lewis...
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.
The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated;
but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of Earth.
This very kindness stings with intolerable insult.
To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease
is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will;
to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”
