I think this goes hand in hand with the decrease in front-page quality. It has become normal to see a link-bait title voted to the top...and then the first ten comments lamenting about how horribly linkbaity the title/article is.

A lot of the times the article is only tangentially related to the sensationalist title and this irks a lot of people.
