I fear this may be a key issue. Specifically: all of your channels are mostly Munchkin most of the time. Now, I get why that is. That line is making you literally millions of dollars, it is most of your actual products, and it's what most of your customers want. Unfortunately, that creates a wall of noise if you're not into Munchkin, and it's easier to just turn it off than to monitor for non-Munchkin blips. Your biggest sellers are, in effect, suppressing news about things outside that realm.

I'm not really on the Munchkin train, but I am consistently interested in your non-Munchkin games. GURPS products? Yes, please. More variants on Zombie Dice, like the Batman game? Yes, very much into that. Eagerly awaiting Car Wars. I went in for Ogre and the minis. And when you come out with new products that aren't part of an existing line (thinking back to, say, the introduction of Castellan or Revolution), I'll at least look into them.

Now, I'm more tuned in than the average bear to what you're up to for various reasons, but thinking about this from the point of view of someone who isn't in my specific position, I think what this means is that I don't want or need your news. Or, at least, not all of it. I want a subset of your news that I am interested in, a Munchkin-free or at least Munchkin-lite channel. And I don't know that you've got one of those. (Would this be worth your while to assemble customizable social media feeds of various kinds? No idea. Just telling you what someone kind of like me would find useful.)
