You have a fundamentally dumb argument. You think every news story of school shootings should get equivalent news coverage? Columbine got arguably way more coverage than the Charlie Kirk story because it was NOVEL at the time. It's not novel after 30 years. I'm not arguing about what people care about more (kids vs Kirk)--I'm talking about media coverage. NEW=more views. This is about what does well with the algorithm.

I actually think we can care about kids and Charlie Kirk (and that there are different and overlapping audiences involved). It's more complicated than your lazy framing.
