Articles are incentivized to elaborate beyond what is even remotely necessary, link back to no one but themselves themselves, repeatedly, and to serve ads and extract personal information for sale while they're doing it.

So you'll have to excuse some of us looking for the tl;dr

Then why bother asking here?

You'd be far more accurate if you said "news sites" or something instead of "articles".

It's not a universal truth, but it's kinda' true of techcrunch.
