What does that have to do with long articles? Are you suggesting long articles move the market more?

Personally, I don't think paying journalists bonuses based on market moves a bad idea. Sure, there's sometimes misaligned incentives, but you could say the same about any compensation scheme.

Neither the OP or the grandparent or my post had anything to do with long article's. The original premise is mediocre articles.
