"high in her convictions..." "we expect..." "her sources..." "we assume..." "also likely, but not confirmed..." "the analyst is a bit uncertain..."

Is it the word 'news' or the word 'rumors', in the site tag-line, which confuses you?

It doesn't matter whether
I'm
interested or not. I wasn't commenting on that fact. I just posed the question, "Is the story newsworthy?"
Well, let's see:
Timelines: Yes
Proximity: Yes
Exceptional Quality: Questionable
Possible Future Impact: None
Prominence: I've never heard of her... has anyone else?
Conflict: None
Number of people involved or effected: One
Consequence: None
Human Interest: None
Pathos: Well, yeah I feel pretty sorry for whoever deems that story newsworthy.
Shock Value: None
Factually: Not newsworthy.

Wait, I have "sympathy?" Maybe you should look that word up. Goodnight.
