I think what the writer/author means is “WRITER’S BLOCK” ... not “CRAMP” lol..
tho, since many news submitters seen to be having PMS lately, ‘cramp’ may not be a misnomer after all! :)
*may I suggest Midol(tm)?
In any event, you should probably do what Noupe does for HIS blog!
as you may notice, he doesnt do “articles” at all, but mainly SUBJECT HEADERS followed by a list of links to articles on OTHER SITES! so, on a slow news day, he only has reach into a bag and repost!
for example:
JQuery routines that have the Letter P in the title!
“How many times have you wanted to P??
JQuery is the ideal javascript library for most of the P that gets to you! P on me, with these excellent routines”
...also of interest:
Mootools routines with the letter ‘F’ in the title!
What the F? More about our Favorite Sixth Letter
I dont think I follow your rant, but my little peeve is that the ‘news article’ itself is but a paragraph introducing ANOTHER article which is the main meat of the matte
