Why are postings to that Internet that are labelled essentially as ‘news articles’ taken more seriously and with less scrutiny than an average Reddit post?
Unlike many ‘news articles’ emanating from the likes of CNN, this one is attributed to a named person. What qualifications does this person have and what research was undertaken to write a credible article on life in Monaco? My conclusion is that it is click-bait junk. Why was this article deemed important or interesting or relevant to the HN community?
This is not a news article, it's under travel which is a common genre of story telling/writing. You might read similar articles in a travel magazine on a plane.
I personally clicked because Monaco = F1 in my brain, I am curious about the town. Primarily I am interested in tech news but occasional side tracks of interesting things are welcome.
