Really impressed by the number of people on social media who turn out to have expertise in both deep sea engineering AND modern Russian political dynamics.
@mattblaze The majority of news media are busy making money off ad revenue from pitching stories with elements of suspense that the readership will follow daily and find appealing -- not stories they "should want you to know about" or that would be beneficial to know about, or that will promote a better human condition. Telling them or beseeching them to report otherwise is yelling revolution in the shower. If the daily dose of monstrous indifference to human suffering sold ads, rest assured, they would report it (over and over and over again until you couldn't tolerate it any longer). You can always find such reportage, but it will seldom find you.
