News posts not containing relevant video or pics is maddening

[Harsh Jones]

Why do almost all news posts not contain links or videos relevant to the news story ? This is supposed to be the internet. Not the newspaper. 

 

For example "Thai police release video of Brit resisting arrest" or "wild boar running through Pattaya streets"  You go to the post and there's no video and no video link. Sometimes they give you a clue where to find the video in the post but I've noticed not even that is there anymore. 

 

Or "Netizens complain about tourist disrespecting temple". It is a news story about viral social media content. And there's no link to the said content.  

 

This basically makes news unreadable.

It doesn't drive me mad. But I agree it is annoying.

There should be at least a link: click here to see the video.

In the opening post of that topic, near the bottom of the post is this:
