The information portal "Kosova-sot.info" has published an article titled "3 women killed and 4 other people injured".
The title of this article does not make clear the news presented in the content. Also, this title does not clarify the country or state of origin of the news.
The news is clarified only in the content, where it is announced that this event took place in The noodles (Italy).
In Fidene, a gunman shot inside a bar, killing three people, the newspaper "Kosova Sot Online" reports.
The tragedy occurred on via Monte Giberto during a meeting to divide properties, it is not yet known whether it concerns a building or a consortium of villas.
Knowing that this information portal is registered in Kosovo (see here) and most of its readers are Albanian speakers (see here), such a generalizing title could misinform readers, leading them to assume that this event took place in Kosovo.
Also, the news is not clarified even by the photograph, as only the sentence "BREAKING NEWS" is visible in it.

Analyze:
"Kosova-sot.info" has published an article regarding the murder and injury of several people in Florence (a district of the Italian capital, Rome), while the title does not clarify which country it is referring to.
This online medium is a portal that operates in Kosovo and that has a dominant number of readers from Kosovo, based on the page's followers on Facebook. Therefore, not providing information about the location of the event could very easily misinform readers, making them think that this event took place in Kosovo.
Based on the working methodology, hibrid.info evaluates this article as "clickbait".
Reasoning:
The “Clickbait” rating is given to texts whose titles have no basis in the content of the following text. Such texts and articles aim to attract the attention of the reader or even the consumer with a sensational title by promising content that does not actually exist and are created mainly out of financial interest, that is, due to increased readability. So, this type of text is intended only to click, which can be converted into a profit for the content producer.
