That's a good point.
I also hate how the media will give certain missing people (not necessarily famous) all this attention. (Gabby Petito comes to mind) People go missing all the time, and they don't all get that same amount of public attention.
The inequality in this country is off the charts.
I'm still remembering how those 5 millionaires in Titan got media attention for days, with other countries joining in the search and rescue effort.
Around the same time, a boat with migrants near Greece capsized. Those people did NOT get the same media attention and search efforts!
