  • Your long post is thought-provoking. I wonder about the relationship between media and audience, like chicken and egg. Do the media focus on certain aspects and then feed it to the public, or is it the public who are only interested in certain aspects and that shapes the media's focus? The Sarah Everard news is certainly horrific and sad regardless.

  • Events that play out in the light of media are always going to engage the public more than those that are only reported on afterwards. That's something that the media have an influence over (what they choose to report and how) but they can't engineer the timing of events.
