Apparently ABCNews.go.com’s intelligent, state of the art, news finding engine thinks I want to read about Prince Harry in Vegas (should anyone care but the Queen?), Robin Roberts (love her, but her illness is not world news) and someone I never heard of talking to Katie Couric on her new Oprah Katie in your coffee clatch 2.0 show.

Really, the go.com network always has been a marketing platform, ill suited to delivering news.
