Risk vs risk perception except in this case it's what shapes risk perception. There's a reason the principals at my former employer generally did not talk to the NYT when called. They had plenty of stories about talking to the NYT to find their quotes taken out of context to support a predefined narrative detached from reality.
I'm not sure we'd be worse off without the NYT (and WaPo while we're at it). Wordle and the crossword puzzle would live on, good investigative journalism would move on as it has been doing for decades, and chumps like Ross Douthat and Bret Stephens might have to find a real job (just kidding: those types always find another far-right sugar daddy to prop them up; grifters gonna grift). Dumping the opinion and editor class at the NYT and WaPo would be the biggest win.
Remind me again why we lament the state of US journalism.

Also worth noting from @ourworldindata , is the *ratio* of media coverage to actual incidence of deaths. It makes the comparison between the two even more vivid.
Deaths from the US CDC & Global Terrorism Index. Media coverage from Media Cloud.

setting concept: an infinite city. trucks show up every morning bringing goods, garbage trucks show up every morning taking trash away. dead people are sometimes found driving the trucks (after, presumably, their bodies were disposed of in dumpsters emptied by those garbage trucks). you can keep walking forever. i'm not sure if there's an infinite subway system but there are DEFINITELY infinite buses with occasionally-shifting routes.
