Does anyone check Google News, or have the Top Stories in their customized Google homepage?  If so, do you notice that the top story links are often to the most inflammatory / reactionary news sources?  The ones that make the most out of the least?  I find I have to dig to get the "real" story, and it's a little troublesome to me.

that's the point I was trying to get at on Sean's post. I honestly think the news doesn't care. It's all about ratings/clicks.
