Passion threads really don't belong in News.

If it's a sourced article, I say it's news. Maybe it's News/Editorial, but sourced articles, for the most part, should be considered "news". Maybe not Front Page. Maybe not Extended. But definitely "news".

Moving a sourced article to chat strictly because it is Passion related is biased, IMO. What other sourced articles get automatically moved to "chat"?

While technically correct, we've been swamped with 'Passion' threads. Every small fact about the movie has received its own thread and was beginning to overwhelm the news forum

We have begun to move some of the excess to chat and some to the Religion forum. Others, which present new ideas for discussion, we've left in news.

Keep in mind that the Chat forum has its own topic for 'tv/movies'. Stories related to box office info or Gibson's income should go there
