The New York Post - Physical Clickbait

After looking into the "New York Post" further, I am unsure whether or not it qualifies as a legitimate publication to a majority of people. Based on this front page and a few online posts, the paper seems to focus more on the sensational. Indeed, the front page of today's paper appears to be a sort of sarcastic joke that chooses an image of democratic candidates with their hands raised in response to the headline. The headline and photo take up the entire page, which appears to be the norm for this paper. There are barely any words aside from the title, headline, and the caption. The caption uses slang I've never even heard before, stating, "All major Dem candidates raise hand in favor of free health care for illegal immigs". All these factors are likely included to make the paper seem more sensational. Their tactic for attracting viewers is like that of online clickbait.
