Please don't try to shoehorn items like this into HN's (generous) scope of "Anything[...]"; it's still not intended to function as an aggregator for displacing traditional news sources. By all means, if you're interested in these types of news items, there's no dearth of outlets that carry them.

"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports[...] If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."

Additionally, political topics especially are not something that comments here excel at handling particularly well, anyway.

The best way to make this better is flagging if you must and not commenting like this on articles you think are off topic. The second best is not doing what I just did reminding people to just move along.
