Of course it is. I would be furious if my local news stopped informing me that the highway will be closed for maintenance on Saturday, elections are being held on Tuesday, public schools have the day off on Thursday and the local university will be playing a championship game on Sunday.
These are all not examples of what the original comment complains about.

So then to me it looks like it isn't about reporting the future, but speculating about it.
It’s a journalism of building up expectations and hyping up the dopamine, ie it’s barely marketing. Journalism is about reporting information. Information about future events is not information.
