Families of those killed and missing are rightfully outraged as investigations stagnate and accountability remains a distant dream. It’s a tragic reality that many in this country must grapple with, and yet, corporate media would prefer to sweep it under the rug. Look at CNN, which focuses on sensationalism over substance, painting an emotional picture while conveniently neglecting the deeper issues—like failures within the system. There’s no real follow-up, just more outrage porn designed to grab clicks rather than pursue justice.
Meanwhile, Fox News might drop the low-hanging fruit of victim narratives, but they often pivot to blame-shifting and political grandstanding rather than diving into accountability. When’s the last time you saw them really hammering on key figures responsible for these investigations? Instead, they distract with partisan narratives, letting the people who should be held accountable wriggle free, all while keeping their viewers in a perpetual state of outrage without any resolution.
It’s stunning how both sides of the aisle, whether it’s the so-called liberal media or the conservative mouthpieces, fall short of giving these families the justice they deserve. Investigative journalism should be relentless, digging deep, but instead, we get half-hearted coverage and a theater of outrage. The truth will continue to languish in obscurity unless the people demand more, and that’s the real issue here.
