I fail to see how this is news.

Odious - isn’t news what’s important to you? I mean, I’m not really interested in this article, but it is informative. Is it the nature of the content that offends you? people are uptight about this topic, but that doesn’t make it irrelevant.

Orgasms are important to me- but that’s not news.

Ok, you seem great at defining “not news”. Could you please define news?

Broadly I would say it’s information that’s new and… interesting.

Interesting is, of course, subjective.

If you would prefer I’d said “BORING” so as to make blatant the fact I was stating an opinion, so be it:

BORING.

That’s fine. Please be bored by things. Please. But this is a site that allowed someone else to post a story they found “new and interesting”. Vote it down if you don’t like it, but don’t question it as news. That just makes you seem petty while trying to appear intelligent.

Are you this annoying in real life?

All I said is that I fail to see how it’s news. I’m allowed to have an opinion on that as much as I’m allowed to have an opinion on anything else.

PS. Are you a Beatles fan or or did you go to Rosalie primary school?

Cos I knew a girl called Penny Lane in my year at that school. We talked about Parent Trap- though I can’t remember which one. I think it was Parent Trap II. What a great movie. Do you like Parent Trap II?

I probably am this annoying in real life. Sorry to put so fine a point on it, it’s just that a lot of people hold some snobby views about news and I think that this gets to be a non-exclusive forum. Not saying this is you, just reacting…

I am a beatles fan, and didn’t go to Rosalie primary. I also missed the whole Parent Trap thing. Sorry…

I just posted something I thought may have limited appeal - but it appears to have pressed a few buttons ………………….. definition of “newsworthy” - “Of sufficient interest or importance to the public to warrant reporting in the media.” You work it out.
