  Partially true but truer is they understand what gets eyes balls and a story like this will get talked about and read much more than, say, a tension-free story about how it’s collegial post resignation.

  It's difficult for normies to see the long term value of tech when it is the primary cause of instability in their lives (job loss, social media etc.) thinking long term requires security for most people. Tech reporters are normies trying to communicate tech to other normies.
