Please can someone at Google have a word with the person in charge of the algorithm – almost every day an inappropriate story gets coughed up into the Entertainment section.  Today’s example is pretty extreme -

Nestled in between

‘Strictly Come Dancing is fixed,’ says Joe Calzaghe (the former boxer who has been dubbed by some “the dancing wardrobe” for his wooden performances can’t understand why he didn’t win celebrity dancing show)

and

University Challenge contestants are given more clues, says producer (the only quiz show on TV for viewers with IQs in double figures drums up some much-needed publicity)

there is a very different story…

Yes,  this is a grotesque story about a vicious attack on a young girl by other teenagers. This is not what any rational person would consider “entertainment”.

How did it end up in Google News?  It must be the reference to social networking, or maybe because the attack was filmed by mobile video.  Still not an entertainment story!
