There are good reasons, although I share your general concern. E.g., if you believe that you may be affected by an event, or if it's important/relevant enough that others will start to frame how it's perceived, it's generally good to find out about it as it's happening.
On the other hand, the vast majority of trending events aren't worth being concerned about for most people.
