Tragedies at Sea: Unequal Coverage and Comparisons.

Human rights advocates have criticized the limited media attention and rescue efforts given to a catastrophic shipwreck off the coast of Greece that left hundreds dead, compared to the extensive resources and news headlines given to the search for the missing Titan submersible. The shipwreck, which killed at least 79 migrants and left hundreds more missing, has sparked protests across Greece against authorities' handling of the tragedy and the European Union's migration policies. Several human rights advocates expressed frustration at the willingness to allow certain people to die while every effort is made to save others, calling it a dark reflection on humanity.
