You've all been trolled--and caught. Which again means more eyes on the page....

Sounds like a hell of a business model. Have your "expert" write an article that makes him sound like a fool, then tell your readers they just aren't smart enough to understand how wise he is. In a few years, they can all sit around talking about that one time they got a lot of hits on their quarterly, online-only magazine.
