All newspapers are becoming like this. It’s what happens when media conglomerates buy up papers across the country—they basically fire 2/3rds of the local journalists and then fill the paper with syndicated columns.

Yeah that started in the 2000s, becaue the internet was hurting them, I even heard the editors of the LA Times, Chicago Tribune and NY Post talking about it on NPR. But the samller papers responded "brilliantly" by getting rid of local content reporters and then started offering day old wire service news you could have found in real time, on the internet.

What is it even about? Why would I click some mystery article?

Same reason you'd try some "mystery meat."
