One of the most interesting parts of the CNN Democratic debate this week had nothing to do with the debates. It came during a commercial break. The Washington Post bought commercial time — which isn’t shocking, since the Democrats are the paper’s natural subscriber base. It’s how The Post promoted itself that was truly jaw-dropping.
The ad resembles a computer screen with a cursor floating over a button that reads, “Unsubscribe.” It starts with the phrase “Clickbait as news.” Is that true? The Post abhors clickbait?
