I think that is because the sub incident had potential to have a happy ending…for at least 5 seconds. Also it is linked to a popular tragedy. Whereas the people dying on migration and human trafficing are inherently horrible and its just depressing to read about it.

You realise had the same time and effort been used to rescue the people from this incident, many more lives could have been saved right?
Does anyone else see the irony of these posts?
Instead of also pushing for this incident to get a lot of solo coverage, many people talking about the billionaires coverage in relation to it. When you mention the submersible in relation to the capsized boat, you are now also talking about the submersible.
Please just focus on the capsized boat if you want people to focus about the capsized boat. Don’t bridge the two incidents together if they aren’t already bridged together in the conversation. Connecting the two incidents just keeps looping the submersible story back into the mix. The discussions have changed to talking about media bias instead of talking about how to stop people from regularly dying on these boats.
People will pay more attention to this if it’s its own story. “What about” tends to get poor coverage and media attention.

The story is about how news media focus on certain topics over others. It’s using the Titan submersible and the Libyan disaster as examples for it.
The money, time and effort to save the Titan submersible has been huge, whereas the same effort has ignored this incident.

There have been articles about this, they don’t get any traction nor do they get sympathy because of the people on board the boat.
