Spoiled on Top Chef. Thanks, MSNBC, you bastards.

Way to put the name of the chef who got eliminated in the headline in the entertainment section. Did it never occur to you that maybe people who are big fans of your show might not have gotten to see it yet? Yes, I was cheating on you with another network (edited to clarify: NBC Universal owns Bravo, the network on which Top Chef airs) so that I could watch the season premiere of Lost. That’s neither here nor there. Have some common sense, headline writing monkeys. It is not that hard to write a headline without giving anything away.

You know how I know? I’ve been a headline monkey. While you do have to put some thought into them to optimize them for search and make them interesting so people will click, it really isn't that difficult. You know how you would have gotten more clicks? Try Find out who got eliminated on Top Chef! OR Restaurant Wars on Top Chef – who won?

See…Not that hard. Jerks.
