You used the term ‘millennial journalism’ in reference to shitty headlines. That pretty directly implies that millenials are responsible for shitty headlines.

I recently read Contact(the book by Carl Sagan, still need to watch the movie), which features a tech billionaire who built his wealth doing exactly that. He developed a chip that could block TV commercials, and later one to filter televangelists as well.
