Like the Titan submarine implosion, the Bayesian yacht sinking, is getting a lot more coverage than the frequent sinking & deaths of migrants on small boats around the world.

This is not to minimise the tragedies that have befallen the families in both these accidents, but reveals the normalisation (and therefore lack of newsworthiness) of migrant deaths at sea around the world.... these deaths get some coverage, sometimes, but then the media usually swiftly moves on.
