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!
There’s a very good tv drama that made those points. Alaska Daily. Thanks to the writers and actors strike it will probably never have a season 2. The show highlights the missing and murdered indigenous woman that until recently and only for a short time weren’t in the media at all.
