To the fair, it's only the title and the first paragraph. The rest of the article looks fine. Well set out actually, with good pictures and an interesting read.

3/10

Looking on my mobile, text doesn't seem to be crashing over the images...
Probably designed to be looked at on tablets, lack of different browser testing isn't a shock...

Even less shocking, the demise of print doesn't seem to have made Jones' writing any more concise or able to draw clear conclusions...

Still plenty of pretty pictures.

They have adverts that don't take over the whole page and stop me reading the article. I didn't even have to log in to make it readable. I've been on STW so long I'd forgotten that was possible 🙂

The second sentence reads "Anticipating the worse...."
Did the editor also give up after the first few words? Appalling.
