I think they're just trying to apply the wrong tool for the job.
What they're probably interested in is getting news/thoughts about a handful of topics, which would be akin to following a few subreddits or forums.
But the way Twitter and Facebook are set-up is that you follow people, not topics. And people tend to talk about all sorts of topics on a given day, thus the "noise."
