Your comment reeks of elitism (though much of the ones in this article do as well). I'm pretty sure that this article wasn't written with HN mind as the audience. Your reaction seemed a bit strong to me. Can you tell me what you find to be a reputable news source? I'm not saying CNN is the best news source but they have to at least be in the top ten of news networks in the U.S. Maybe even in the top five? And if you haven't noticed the general public does like "human interest" news. IMHO this is a step up from the local news in LA. It is at least positive rather than the overwhelmingly negative news that I seem to come across. Anything that possibly encourages more young people (women) to get into programming should be encouraged (again IMHO). TLDR...don't hate.
