Maybe the 4 exact one line breaking news stories from MSNBC, Foxnews, CNN, ABC? We've removed them all and much more from breaking news.

That actually brings up a good idea. How about limiting breaking news stories to stories that have articles, and are sourced? That might stop the dupe's, and limit the number of "series" and "hugh" jokes that pervade non-sourced stories.

That has been discussed, but for really legitimate breaking news stories, like 9-11, or the war, there is value.
