Click sluts: OK, we get that they’re doing it for the clicks, but this is getting silly. SMH — WTF?

They’ve given a nod to the US recession, but in the midst of looming Federal budget cuts and NSW MPs crossing the floor over power privatisation, here’s a selection of headlines from this morning’s SMH homepage at 11.50am:

Dungeon mum ‘innocent’

Kidney sale ‘open to abuse’

Facebook murder rocks ‘perfect family’

Robobugs to swarm over enemy lines

And the main pic — the intoxicating promise of Mischa Barton topless.

Brain not atrofied yet? Then scroll to the bottom of the barrel, sorry, screen, for Britney, Corey Worthington, an obscene outburst and some drugs on the side:

That’s not to say we wouldn’t click on any of this (hello, Facebook murder), but we’re maintaining the outrage. — Sophie Black
