I will admit that I rarely click on a link without first seeing some sort of summary of why it is worthy of my time. All too often links-without-summaries are just hit-and-runs fitting somebody’s agenda. (Yea, not always. But often.)
I tend to figure that if the poster didn’t find it worth his/her time to summarize the article, it doesn’t merit my time to read it. This is even more so if the link goes to a video where it can be very difficult to skim and learn what it is about.
If the link is to a website with a good reputation, that may encourage me to click. But so much science journalism is poorly done, so I tend to ignore sensationalist headlines. Likewise, I tend to ignore summaries that are simply a rewording of the article’s title.
