The poll is open for a week so we'll see what the results say at the end and go from there.

Excuse me? This is my thread!!

Personally, I understand where people are coming from not liking sub-forums but I wouldn't say it'd need a whole new forum

I think (and I am NOT saying it has to be one way or another..) it depends entirely on your reading preferences.

As someone who reads the Daily Telegraph politics is an expected topic, and taking the description from the Current Affairs forum; "Discuss the latest world affairs, news, and politics", one would interpret that as "real" news - ie. world affairs. On the other hand, someone that would be more likely to pick up the Daily Star or the Sun is much more likely to consider the latest goings on in "I'm a Celebrity" and Tom Daley's love life as "news". Don't get me wrong, the Sun is excellent light reading if you don't want to use your brain too much (no insult intended to anyone - as someone who has read, and will voluntarily read the paper if there is one going).

TLDR; tabloid vs broadsheet news.

Not sure if these were aimed towards me as the OP or not but whether there is a sub forum created or not, I will be reading all the threads.

My reasons for posting is because people clearly enjoy these kinds of threads, they are the most popular. Sometimes when these types of threads are posted the are met with replies such as "This isn't even news" which make people less inclined to post such threads. If there is a section specifically for this kind if thread, people may be more inclined to post this increasing activity in this particular area of the forum

ofc we all click wat we like to read!
there is room for both types of threads to co-exist without having to push either into a subforum
