Headline and Clickbait

A good headline attracts the attention of the reader. Headlines can have different functions:

summarising a story/article:

-making the readers curious so they will keep on reading

-setting the tone for what follows (serious, factual, humorous etc.)

Some headlines can be clickbait. Clickbait is a sensationalised or misleading headline that encourages readers to click a link to an article or video. Such a headline does not present facts objectively, but appeals to the readers’ emotions or curiosity.

"10 Shocking Secrets That Will Change Your Life"

Clickbait

Look up an example of a clickbait headline.

Tone of a text

Tone in a text refers to the author’s attitude toward a certain topic. Through specific word choice, the author reveals their feelings and opinions to the reader, conveying the author’s intentions behind the text. 

• Cheerful:  I can’t wait to get to the party!
• Pessimistic:  This party is going to be a disaster.
• Hopeful:  This party could change everything for me.
• Optimistic:  We’re going to have a great time, and absolutely nothing will go wrong.
• Arrogant: I hope they realize how lucky they are to have me on their guest list.
• Fearful: But what if I make a fool of myself and nobody likes me?
