Sorry, I didn't mean to imply astroturfing. My comment is asking how many people "paid to read the article" (because it's behind a paywall), and not "were paid to comment here".

Still not a great comment I admit, but with the amount of discussion going on I would be surprised if everyone is subscriber or if they are going off of the headline alone.
