I would have to agree. I don't know if any of you still watch the local news station that is in your area. But when I watch mine I get a dose of "un-news". Every so often the anchors interject that a member of the News 9 (the channel I watch) team has just got married or just had a baby. Now this isn't news and they could have filled those couple of seconds (which usually are complimented with footage of the event) with "real" news, but they don't. It just brings some humanity into the community these types of media try to foster between their viewers/readers/listeners. The run the show and call the shots. If you don't like it ... skip it. Who cares, move on. No one forces you to read any of the articles on /., choose the ones you like and quit complainign about the ones you don't.
