What were Digg users doing?

Did you hear about reports that say that Newsvine users beat Digg and Reddit users in promoting the Shocking shooting at Virginia Tech campus in the shortest amount of time?

The story here goes to report that by the time writer noticed the Shooting story on Newvine’s front page, it was languishing on page 3 on Digg.

Check out the screenshots here.

Thus the question:
Is social news only about algorithms, karma, cabals and what not?
Is it about burying news items, and ranting disguised as meaningful comments?
What about timely news?
