This could be a coincidence. Your conclusion is based on a
statistically-invalid case. It seems more like an hypothesis
that you want to embrace rather than a reality. Google
revolves around many site more frequently than Yahoo, but I
agree that Google is notorious for having out-of-date
content (cache is also days behind), for which news
aggregators exist. Take for example: Technorati, Google
News, Yahoo News... and the brand-new Topix news feeds which
I subscribed to earlier today. It's quite okay, but there is
still a lot of 'noise' among the results.
