Well nowadays a lot of well known websites use clickbaits regularly, e.g., wsj and NYTimes. Many times, they are willing to summarize the news in the title when the news itself is not that complicated.

I'm sure they'd change to better headlines to avoid getting downranked.

That's assuming there aren't click bait false-positives based on page title.
