The Kosovo portals "kosova-sot.info" and "veriu.info" have published articles with the titles "Bomb alert in the center" and "BREAKING NEWS: Bomb alert in the capital."

These established headlines do not indicate in which city this event took place. This is only revealed after clicking on the articles.

The bomb alarm occurred in the city of Skopje, more precisely in the area around the Theater and the Foreign Ministry.

Knowing that these aforementioned portals are registered in Kosovo and the vast majority of their readers are Kosovars, with these headlines they may misinform readers that the event is related to the city of Pristina.

Analyze:

The Kosovo portals "kosova-sot.info" and "veriu.info" have published an article about a bomb alert in the city of Skopje, but in the title they have not clarified which city they are talking about.

Knowing that these portals are registered in Kosovo and the vast majority of their readers are Kosovars, this could misinform them, implying that this event is about the Kosovar state.

From the fact-checking analysis conducted by hibrid.info, these articles are rated 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.
