Other than Pravda on the Hudson and the Guardian having near duplicate reporting themes, I don’t get the point.

When it comes to death and “reporting” on deaths in the news, of course homicide - which is less common than cancer - is reported in the news more often. Is there an identifiable person who is a culprit in a cancer death?? What would be the purpose of reporting every cancer death the way homicides are reported?

More of an observation that "man bites dog" gets the coverage.

Then coverage drives policy.
