Everybody can write glorified copy/pasted press releases and call it news. If you think it's so easy, then why have you never submitted anything?
Look, not even PAID editors churn out the amount of news that I do, and they sure as hell don't run their own unrelated company in the meantime. Most of the news on something like Engadget, for instance, consist of short blurbs, and they have a damn large pool of editors, and boatloads of money and a massive company backing them. Ars Technica's news is more like ours (but better), but they, too, have a shitload of editors, loads of money, and a large company backing them.
We have no money, no sugar daddy, no massive pool of editors. OSNews is basically a one-man show, and apart from doing OSNews every day, I go to university, run my own company, and have a very active social life. As far as OSNews goes, I try to add a little character, individuality and uniqueness to each of my posts. It doesn't always work, but I can assure you - and I say this with a perfectly straight face - you'll be hard-pressed to find another me, someone who is willing to run OSNews like this.
And we can know, since we sure have tried.
