LOL, funny guys, but seriously ....
Many people post the next days headlines and major stories when they come out at 1am EST. By the time many wake up and get online (9+ hours later), these stories get pushed out of the preview “boxes” on the right.
How many people here get their news by searching for a headline in the search feature or scrolling back thru 50+ articles to see what they missed? This place is not like Drudge where important stuff stays on the front page, once its out of the preview boxes, most people are not aware of it.
I don’t have an answer but I there are times I only become aware of a story on its second or third posting.
