A bit of a tangent, but Tom's Hardware ran an A/B test for their headline with the following options:
A: WD launches HDD recycling process that reclaims rare earth elements, cuts out China.
B: This HDD recycling process could make U.S. less dependent on China.
I get the point of A/B testing, but this is an example where as a media organization you have to pick whether you believe in A or B. If you are into technology, you can make a solid argument that A and B are extremely different.
I'd go with a, it 's factual, while b sounds clickbaity like the next cheap boulevard paper. TH going down the drain of cheap attention for ads now?
Yes, A sounds far more neutral.
B is borderline misinformation as there was nothing in their own article to backs up the "make U.S. less dependent on China".
Good guy China helping with global recycling incentives rather than just chucking the old electronics in the landfill?
