Why Did Reuters File This Story Under Entertainment?

“‘Nightline’ Devotes Show to Reading War Dead Names."

This sentence from the piece partially explains.

"Due to time constraints in the 30-minute program, “Nightline” will limit its reading to the approximately 523 U.S. troops killed in combat since the start of the war. Another 201 have died as a result of accidents, friendly fire or suicide."

Nightline isn’t doing this “show” to honor the dead.
