You’re right but I do think media outlets focus on certain events to detract from scandals and controversies by a government if they’re sympathetic to that government. I don’t think this is one of them though.
Certainly in the past, politicians, royal family, connected ppl etc would pass on words to editors to keep things out the news or off the front page.
Most articles now are driven by clicks, aren't they?... The more theyre read, the more theyre written about - the Titanic, pending real time deaths, submarine, billionaires... All ingredients for heavily read articles. An example of why we are all contributing to this thread and as someone else wrote, there's nothing on the Greek boat deaths. The Titanic has clearly captured the imagination of a lot of very wealthy, middle aged men.
A good friend of mine, Rob Johnson, works for Llanberis mountain rescue. Back in the mid 2000s, they had a call out and someone had fallen and damaged their back, so they had to call out a helicopter available, that was one from Anglesey. They got the woman on the chopper and asked if they could get the easy option of a lift back to base off the mountain ... Pilot turns round and said no problem lads, just buy me a beer, and they saw it was prince william behind the controls.
There's no doubt that sometimes stories are put out to draw attention from other stories, but I think this one just had lots of ingredients that got people interested - Titanic, Billionaire, a submarine that goes over 2 miles under the ocean steered with an X Box controller etc.
I think at point 2 I'd have clicked my ballpoint... apparently it's 'iron clad"..

Trump'd up nonsense...
Probably
But if Trump was still President and the same thing had been said people would immediately accept it as FACT.
Because commodity hardware is cheap to replace, don't you know. Someone should tell Boeing.
Some people.

Cringe making, patronising stuff. As were a lot of films about “the youths”. Most seemed to feature Robert
Morley in them.Remember seeing at the pictures in 1962.
With the knowledge that the mothership and the towed submersible left from a Canadian port, is the Canadian Government not partially responsible due to its provision of departure facilities for a non-regulated submersible albeit heading into international waters.
