Ann Lipton"journalist-friendly" - definitely the first thing I think of when it comes to Elon Musk
Luis Villa@annmlipton I am no fan of how modern American journalism abuses headlines, but, uh, what???
@luis_in_brief I have no idea but I'm pretty sure context-less images aren't going to get much traffic.
RenéeAll my nonexistent shitcoins on the next step being charging orgs by the word to have those headlines/descriptions put back.
@reneestephen @annmlipton that’s so evil it might just be right
SweetLlamaMyth@luis_in_brief @reneestephen @annmlipton
It'd be less effective than plaintext headlines (especially for accessibility purposes), but what stops outlets from just baking the headline into the image?
What's X's unhinged response to that though?
* Censoring all images that contain any text? Imagine accidentally banning all memes on a social network.
* Detecting cases where text on the image matches the headline, and suppressing/billing for those?
