Notice how selective coverage works? When SpaceX pulled off that astronaut rescue mission, crickets from mainstream outlets. Zero fanfare. But let one thing go sideways and suddenly it's wall-to-wall coverage for weeks.



The pattern's pretty obvious at this point. Major achievement in space tech? Barely a mention. Meanwhile they'll dissect every other move under a microscope. That rescue operation should've dominated headlines everywhere – live coverage, expert panels, the whole nine yards. Instead it got buried like some minor footnote.

Say what you want about Musk, but the double standard in how his wins versus controversies get covered is wild. This wasn't some small deal either. We're talking about bringing stranded astronauts home safely. That's the kind of breakthrough that used to unite people in appreciation of human achievement.

But nope. Silence. Makes you wonder what other stories get the same treatment.

NGL, the double standards of the media are really something... When a rescue mission is carried out perfectly, no one says a word, but if there's even the slightest disturbance, they make a huge fuss about it for three months. I really can't understand this logic.

Forget it, that's just how mainstream media is—selective blindness... How come nobody reported on SpaceX saving those astronauts? Seriously, when there's an achievement it's dead silent, but when something goes wrong it's all over the place. This routine is so overused.

Wake up, this is how the media selectively turns a blind eye. Good news gets ignored while bad news makes the headlines. They've been playing this trick for years... When achievements come, they play deaf; when scandals come, it's all over the place. Honestly, compared to the negative news, the positive stuff is treated like it's been banished to the cold palace... Speechless.

That's why I don't watch traditional media anymore; the narrative control is too obvious.

honestly the media bias angle is kinda surface-level tbh... what actually matters is the *information asymmetry* it creates. if mainstream outlets suppress positive spacex coverage while amplifying controversies, you're literally looking at a liquidity problem in narrative markets. retail gets worse data, insiders capitalize.

ngl this double standard is really something else. When the rescue mission was completed, no one said a word, but as soon as something goes wrong, there's overwhelming criticism... this is information warfare.
