Bate? Bait? It's not even accurate news, only after a few paragraphs (BuzzFeed style paragraphs where each of them contain 1 sentence) does it say "He later tweeted short videos of walruses, perhaps suggesting his challenge to Mr Zuckerberg may not entirely be serious.". I don't think they agreed to do anything. This is almost on the level of publishing the headline "Obama threatens to kill Jonas brothers with predator drones" because Obama joked about it: ▶ this video

>Obama's constitutional law idealism may have been severely corrupted by the pressures of his current role, but it's still there. Really? I have two words for you: Predator drones[1]. The sitting president of the United States, who has actually ordered drone strikes against American citizens who surely have Constitutional rights, joking about droning more American citizens. Whatever bit of constitutional law idealism was there was either an act or long since gone. [1] ▶ this video
