They could easily milk the Luigi story in both ways. Stories about CEO killers and talking about unsafe it is for them and being targeted 🤮. Or they could go into what Luigi wanted which was raise this shit into the spotlight and talk nonstop about the failed healthcare system. Corporate America only wanted the former and the public doesn't and they buried the latter.

Only if milking anti-CEO sentiment didn't also endanger CEO's who know they've done immoral shit to get to where they are.

Also, every wealthy people tend to have overlapping interests with different investments, meaning the richest median ducks prolly have some shares in the other abusive systems.

Reminds me of this clip from John Oliver, if the timestamp works (t473), about how what's popular isn't always what's important. It's not a 1-to-1 to what I was saying but you get the gist of these people.

Is that it? Or is the media being owned by corporate the issue?

Two things can be true.

Anger means cheap ad clicks, and little critical thinking with plenty of sharing. It's profitable

What’s also true is that corporate is terrified of Luigi and want him to go away.

I fear he's being killed.

Doesn't seem like there's much to cover right now. He's locked up and I thought he was being segregated from the other inmates.
