Thank you.

I'd take this argument more seriously if the shipwreck wasn't ALWAYS mentioned in relation to the Oceangate story. I haven't seen a major news outlet discuss it on its own, nor do they report on other migrant tragedies ever.

Mentioning this tragedy only to make a point about media coverage is pretty shitty IMO.
