What is, for the purposes of answering this question, bait? Is bait any piece of media that begs a response? Can bait be sincere? Is bait exclusively negative or are negativity and positivity even relevant to the determination of what is or isn’t bait? Amongst the enumerable questions one can ask, which ones provide the quickest route to elucidation? I’d guess 4 and 701.
