A curious thing about "Breaking News."

I've noticed this about lots of news sites....if it's breaking news about Russia. .....it's driven down by loads of stories about local affairs, or whatever is on the AP or Reuters wire.

Curious.

Look at the original posting of the Russian-Sessions news, and the posting of news stories to drive it down.
