I don't give a crap about Justin's breakin. He should get better locks. This is not news, just crude the MSM feeds you to keep you asleep.
It is news - anything involving a Member of Parliament, particularly a break-in at an office or a theft, is normal to report. Not sure what your objection to it is based on. Joe Clark had a computer stolen about 5 or 6 years ago too, and it was reported. Famous MP's are even more likely to have these events make the news. When an MP's computer is specifically targeted and stolen and nothing else is taken, it may also have a political motive behind it.
On a more positive note, Pierre Trudeau was among the first inductees recently inducted into the Queer Hall of Fame and Justin expressed his pride about it:
