I think its more newsworthy that Microsoft actually left this exploit into their system and it was discovered first by a five year old after the system was out for quite a few months

I'd say its also more newsworthy for Tech Sites who know what they are talking about to report, rather than CNN

[lolz??]

this is like praising a miner as a chemistry genius for stumbling across a vein of gold by accident
pretty sad that microsoft never found this though

Actually its more like accidentally leaving one chemical in another chemical and getting something very useful incidentally.
