Perhaps, although I'm not entirely sure if that's the news agency's actual motive. My wife and I try to watch the news every evening, and there's almost always at least one left-field 'human interest' story that we both end up exclaiming "That's not news!"

Yes, I say that those human interest stories have that effect.
