I’m not trying to make this more than it is, but I found it very strange that Yahoo! put the death of NBC correspondent David Bloom as the top story in their Entertainment section:

Maybe the Today show isn’t real journalism, but here are the other “Top Stories” in the section:

• Russell Crowe Not So Surly as Wedding Day Nears (Reuters)
• Irishman Farrell Rings Up U.S. Box Office Honors (Reuters)
• ‘Make Luv’ Still Britain’s Favorite Single (Reuters)
• Architect of Sydney Opera House Wins Top Award

I don’t know whether it was classified by a human at Y! or Reuters, but it seems an odd category.
