As a current journalist working as a "converter" of broadcast news to online news, I can assure you that most reporters/producers don't particularly enjoy pasting AP/Reuters/APF wire stories with different headlines.
The root of the problem is that most mainstream media outlets don't put enough into their online counterparts. As one of only 2 people posting stories onto a broadcast news station's website, it's very difficult to put forth the effort on Lindsey Lohan's latest car crash when you can spend more time on a compelling local story.
It's getting better though. The problem is that people will turn to news aggregators before the problem fixes itself, I fear.
