Yes as soon as blog entries become less extreme, the readership drops off quickly, profoundly...I guess this explains a lot about media in general really.
I'll see how the by-line: "Shock! Horror! Murdoch Dies of Shame! Picture P3. Your Astrology Cooking Tips P38." pans out.
I recall, years ago, reading a study of headlines and the most read journal articles were those that included in the headlines:
Royal. Sex. Murder. Shock.
which was why the Headline: Headless Body in Topless Bar Horror did so well.
Now, if it was only Royal Horror Sex Murder Shock: Headless Body in Topless Bar. Police Puzzled
Hmmm, might try that one and report the internet traffic flow.
Police Puzzled also goes down well.
Old tricks are the best tricks.
