That used to be a few years ago, but it doesn't anymore. This is quote from Tony Stubblebine on another site.
QUOTE: Lost our way on recommendations. When I showed up the company was convinced that engagement equals quality. That's not true and it gets even more pronounced if you pay people to game your recommendation system.

This is another lot of comments from Tony - note he says nothing about getting people engaged. He is going where the money is - excellent articles. That is what he wants.
There is no money made by the company when they pay for comments from readers.
