How do you think this encourages click bait "even more". How would you avoid click bait? Magazines that you deem "not click bait" get granted more money? Who decides what's in this worthy category?

Even before online advertising, it's not like tabaloid magazines didn't exist and make a lot of money.

If people spend their time on a website, why shouldn't that website be worthy of money.

If you went to a site and didn't like it - don't go back there again. Why is it fair for you to visit a site repeatedly and only give money when it publishes an article you like? It's not like you can sign up to the NYT and only pay for the articles you liked that month.
