I generally don't read those stories, or to be honest, much news at all. I personally don't like to read about things I can't do anything about, because it depresses me, and that just adds more misery to the world. I believe in acting locally in my own small way by volunteering and giving to charity. I don't disagree with people who do read a lot of news, just giving my own take.
Like other people have suggested, I go straight to the forums and skip over the front page. I usually don't look in the articles section.
Admin once said that threads relating to the GE could be blocked, so perhaps this could be done on request for the articles section as well?
