What we die of vs what the media covers

It's mildly interesting, but any take that news coverage should track proportionally with causes of death, would be a pretty dumb take.

This reminds me a bit of when there is a school shooting. Yes, obviously, it's a tragedy and not sure how anyone could deal with it. But when my friends bring it up, I'm like... kids are 10,000% more likely to die while commuting to school, than at school. Yes I said 10,000% instead of 100x, but same-same. Where your seatbelt.
