I get that it falls into the same news category, but when you dig a little deeper and look at what impact it has on things like movies, international style and the business of celebrity (a big business) it qualifies as more newsworthy than Tim, who people are not interested in on the same level. People want to read about her more and on top of that it has more impact on business. That makes it more newsworthy, within the gossip news category.
The distinction you are making seems to be more about category of news (celebrity gossip) and that none of it qualifies as newsworthy. Which is a whole other debate. But I get where you are coming from now. I was just talking about the example with Tim. And its good to know all the straight talk didn't came out of no where like the Hawkins talk did
