Well, I wasn't trying to categorise the Beckham's marriage troubles as anything, but as it is happening now, then surely it would count as current affairs. Not everything fits into one category. If the Beckhams count as entertainment, then If a soccer player murders someone, is that sport? Anything that is recently happened, or currently on-going, is current affairs, despite wether people think they are important than not.
The point I was trying to make (it appears now I didn't need to, sorry about that), was that, in the way you said "important" you seemed to dismiss anyone who thinks that anything else is important, which I thought was a bit unfair.
