I completely agree with your second point, and, FWIW, I suspect Nassim Taleb would as well. This site seems to promote the "narrative fallacy" that Taleb rails against in "The Black Swan."
I worry that it could end up with some very embarrassing results-- e.g., two separate news feeds report on the same event at different times, a positive effect is ascribed to one of the stories, and a negative effect is ascribed to the other.
