What do you mean, the media is silent about this? There's tons of articles about that exact thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

There has been a lot of coverage, yes, but media didn't make as much noise... the stories about migrants drowning was soon banned to page 7-13 on local newspapers... while this millionaire drama is all over the media for days now...

That kinda makes sense though, since there was no ongoing rescue/recovery operation to talk about. There's only so many articles you can write about a bunch of people drowning.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, you could write a lot. About the organization that pushed the people back into the water. About the politicians that sanctioned this. About the lives of those people who drowned. About the process of drowning. You can pretty much write a book about this. But no. It's immigrants, that's normal right?

Fair enough, but I would argue that a lot of these things are more general and not necessarily specific to this incident itself, so they are not really breaking news in that sense.
