... And therefore it is.
There ain't no grand council that decides what is or is not a news site. If they want to put news (even of very limited scope) on a site and call themselves a news site, then more power to their elbows.
It's nice to see. The Internet was, in large part, invented just for this kind of thing to happen.
OTOH, HTML5 and css seem to have been invented to prevent "normal humans" creating sites.

.... I meant as opposed to a spoof news site like "The Onion", "The Framley Examiner" or "The Daily Mail". The rest of what you said is why I posted it - a true WTF - why would anyone make the decision to spend the time and effort to put this on an actual news site, but I'm glad they did.

It's quite refreshing.
A bit tedious*, but refreshing.

WTE !
They look like normal ppl, nothing special ?
Usually I don't go to shopping ...
but when i do, i'm dressed like that (depending on weather).
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Exactly. The Crawley News has decided to photo just shy of 100 random people, then turn that into a "Crawleys Best Dressed" slideshow.
The only explanations I can think of is it's an Easter egg, or an SEO something.

Yeah, something like that 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Hm, clearly "best" is a relative word.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

No, no. For Crawley, these exhibits are the equivalent of cat-walk models.

He lost me with "We have evolved alongside the honeybee in a symbiotic relationship".
Er, yeah. If there's that much BS in the first sentence, I really don't want to listen to him, any more.

But you don't need an over-hyped hive for that.

Manual and machine pollination is a lot more widespread than many would imagine. I don't think there are many arable farms that don't do it at least a little.
People don't do it because there aren't enough bees; they do it because it's quicker, more efficient, and gives more predictable results.

It's not really BS: Honeybees have been bred to do well in hives (and produce more honey) than wild bees. If you like, they have been domesticated in the same way that dogs have been "evolved" from wolves - and both sides have gained as a result in just the same way.

That's not evolution, it's genetic engineering -- the blunderbuss variety that was used for thousands of years before we figured out how to do it properly.
The only evolution I see is the evolution of the kind of marketing BS used for the clip.
I just can't listen to cr@p like that; it brings me out in hives.

I think you might be overreacting - forget the BS; look at the product.

Yeah. Bit of a joke, isn't it.
We want to improve things for the bees, my @rse.
The best thing you can do to improve things for the bees is leave the poor buggers alone. They don't need us in their lives or hives.
"We want YOUR MONEY for this cheap trash that you'll junk within two seasons!!!" is the real message.
