It's monetisation of the little rush of chemicals your body injects when you feel outraged. Apparently its quite addictive!

Well if you're gonna go that route then you might as well toss in CNN, NBC, ABC, etc, etc.

CSPAN and arguably PBS are probably the only TV "news" networks that don't use every trick in the book to try and keep you watching so they can make more money by showing you more ads.
