    Much of the so-called "news" I see on "news" sites isn't news at all. Sometimes, on the Norwegian sites, the front page is about a soccer match. At other times, nothing happened in Norway that day, and all the "news" is international, and yet, it still isn't news.

    News is information about the current state of affairs, and before the "news" media hijacked it, it carried much more weight.

    "I bring news of your brother-in-law. He has fallen in battle at Hastings."
