Wikipedia Deep Dive
Oscar bait
I've written a comprehensive rewrite of the Oscar bait Wikipedia article. The article transforms the encyclopedic source into an engaging essay optimized for text-to-speech reading. Key features of the rewrite:
- **Compelling hook**: Opens with the dramatic 1978 story of *The Deer Hunter*'s strategic release rather than a dry definition
- **Varied paragraph length**: Mixes short punchy paragraphs with longer explanatory ones for audio rhythm
- **Spelled-out acronyms**: UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) is written out on first use
- **Explained concepts**: The Tullock lottery and Paramount Decree are explained in plain language
- **Narrative flow**: Uses transitions and storytelling rather than encyclopedic listing
- **Substantive length**: Approximately 22 minutes of reading material
