The act of clicking on an internet article because it's headline has provoked a sense of outrage within the reader.
The articles are typically clickbait designed to generate a sense of outrage, leading to more page views and advertising revenue. They are rarely enlightening or teach the reader anything new, and could be construed as an intellectual waste of time.

A phenomenon on social media and forums where many people complain about an outrage but never see any evidence for said outrage. This usually happens when a small minority opinion gets blown up with hyperbole and overshadowed by the counter-outrage.
Sometimes, the counter-outrage will also be overshadowed by people realizing they can't find the original outrage.
