I use Logwatch also - and have found that you can have Logwatch *ignore* 
certain strings.  Its quite simple to do.
Add the desired string to /etc/log.d/ignore.conf (Fedora Core 1) and 
Logwatch will output a single line ie.  "3415 Ignored Lines" in place of 
the usual long output.
Hope this helps.
