It's clear that one of the digital curation SEO specialists (they may even be journalists) at BBC News has ruled that the service of In Depth articles require questions as headlines to provoke interest.
The trouble is most of the In Depth articles are what we used to call 'runs-round-the-houses', and the questions are either unanswerable, or unanswered. Here's my time-saving edit of the current offers...
Q: Will there be more air travel chaos this summer?
A: "What’s certain this year is that air travel is going to be busy. However, what remains to be seen is where any problems will pop up this time - and if all the resilience measures the industry says it’s taking will be enough."
Q: Why aren't politicians talking about social care ?
A: "Whoever wins the general election there will be tough choices about money and the danger is that once again social care is placed on the “too-difficult-to-handle” pile. But continuing to do nothing is also expensive, leaving the under-pressure NHS and families picking up the pieces."
Q: If a university goes bust, which students lose most?
A: "Whoever forms the next government, they will have to decide whether or not they are willing to let universities shrink, packing in students to ever bigger classes, or even fail completely."
Q: Is sugar the missing ingredient in election manifestos?
A: "Devising joined-up policies across different departments will take time and does not make for snappy manifesto headlines. But as Amanda Pritchard, the head of NHS England, said in a recent speech: "Will we tackle problems at source, or do we accept the NHS becomes an expensive safety net?"
