It literally is. You’re using a colloquial meaning of “news”, and you are saying something like, “this news is unsurprising.” BUT IT’S STILL A REPORT OF TOPICAL EVENTS HAPPENING RECENTLY, IE, IT’S THE FUCKING NEWS.
Okay, so you were REALLY saying, “Why is this surprising?” Except NO ONE SAID IT WAS, so of course we assumed you were asking, “Why is this in the news?”
Fine, die on that hill. I suppose you’re the sort of person that thinks a hunch is as good as objective reporting. Maybe the news isn’t your thing at all.
Edit: Look at it this way. Presumably, if this is “not news” because it’s so obvious, then in your view, it WOULD be news if it DIDN’T go up by 10%. Well that’s what this fucking article is about, okay? It’s about how it didn’t not go up 10%. It’s about how you can stop waiting to be surprised by it not going up 10%. JFC.
Why is this news
Because PC gaming is about to get more expensive in the US. A topic that directly relates to the PC gaming community.
The fact tariffs are doing what tariffs do is not news.

You very clearly knew what I meant…
Okay, so you were REALLY saying, “Why is this surprising?” Except NO ONE SAID IT WAS, so of course we assumed you were asking, “Why is this in the news?”
No that’s not what I was saying. News is supposed to be informative. Reporting that water is wet is not informative. Everyone already knows.
You should really cool it with the caps lock, you read like a deranged individual.

…what does a “hunch” have to do with anything? Or objective reporting? I haven’t accused anyone of not being objective.
This is not the tarrifs being implemented, this is additional price increase.
It says “in reaction to tariffs” right in the title, bud…
Which means ‘tariffs added some, so we add additional 10% on top’.
That is a new information.
Yes I can read, thank you.
