Children are taught all about the power of voting early, and it's common for schools all across the land to stage mock voting days for Presidential candidates. But here's the frightening fact: the Scholastic News election poll has called the correct candidate 15 out of the last 17 elections, which are really good odds. They've only been wrong twice in the last 70 years: 1948 and 1960. Since the Nixon-Kennedy election, they've been correct every single time.

No. But it's a simple SEO tool that we have to use to ensure that the information we write about is accurate.

Click bait has to be accurate? Why?

Well, for a website that gets millions of views per day, the last thing you want as a writer is to be known for spreading around information that's inaccurate.

But it's click bait. It's what you read at 2am when you're bored/drunk/high/all of the above, and you just want to pass some time till you can think of something more entertaining to do... but then it's two hours later and you're still reading articles for no apparent reason. But you still don't give a **** about how accurate all that **** was.

Either way, I only do and use the tools I'm provided to shell out accurate information in the best way I can.

I'm sure your readers don't care though, so you can take it easy.
