I certainly agree with what you said, by my comment was more of a meta post rather than regarding this particular topic. The same thing happened when Steve Jobs died.

At a glance, there seem to be 4 or 5 unique aspects to this story that appear on the front page, despite multiple sources parroting each other.

People and events resonate with, move or touch other people.

Most other people, I should say.
