As much as I’d like to believe it’s a conspiracy, news organizations make money from clicks. There isn’t much for them to monetize between now and February 21, so they’re focusing on more immediate stuff.
If they can get good photos and text from the next court date, Luigi will get more coverage.
Edit: there have been like five plane crashes, one US inauguration, and major US wildfires since his last court date.
Great points. Knowing the public is favorable towards Luigi, media outlets will definitely want to capitalize on any developments and opportunities to report on him since it’d generate clicks

Wait did you post this before the DC one tonight?!
I meant all the ones around Xmas, but yeah.
Yeah. I agree. I know the news media has agendas to push, but stretching like this is counterproductive to starting or encouraging a movement.
