This is gonna sound privileged but migrant boats sinking is not new news. This has been over the headlines since at least 2015 so people aren’t going to be receptive any more. But it’s not every day that millionaires die in a submarine
A very reputable news outlet in my country ran several stories a day about the sub. Wha**t happened?, Infos about the people, how muxh air do they have?, a story when their air supply actually ran out, …
The weirdest were two opinion pieces about the reasons why “we” cared and wanted to read more about 5 rich people than about a sinking boat full of migrants. It felt really distasteful, because they wrote all the articles, because they wanted the clicks and money
I think that the mystery is cause for the news coverage, along with the unique aspect of the sub. I’d like to think that a missing submarine of migrants would get the same attention but… not sure.
