Unfortunately, that's not what happens in web design unless traffic is significantly reduced to be noticeable by the higher-ups; when a website like Playbill has some exclusive content, that generally doesn't happen. The vast majority of web developers and designers (and, of course, their bosses) have neither knowledge nor interest in usability heuristics and user behavior. You'd think everyone with a job related to media would know by now--no one likes being forced to go below fold without good reason (the only good reason being interesting content above fold).

And news articles should be dated, not only on the article page itself.

By the way, if you don't have exact spellings or titles for the IBDB search function, I suggest using Google with the "site:IBDB.com" option. Google's algorithms will make suggestions and autocorrect for you.
