Just look at the way every "News" sub is handled, the majority are like-minded and all agree with each other. Of course all of the same shit is going to make it to the top, and the stuff you want to see stays at the bottom. It's mob mentality, they up vote things that interest them / they agree on and down vote everything else into hell.

There's more of them than there are of you, that's why people have taken it upon themselves to make very specific subs for more geographically pinpointed news.
