Are Entertainment News Sites Really That Lazy?

When the Associated Press announced today the ‘news’ that 98 Degrees announced they were taking an extended break, you really have to laugh about it. It was one month ago to the day I believe that this news was posted… then some AP lackey wanders over to the site likely looking for reaction to the Jessica Simpson engagement to member Nick Lachey and stumble onto this news… Then the gerbil-like entertainment sites feed off this old news. It just shows how reliant news is on press releases, not digging it up themselves on the artist’s websites.
