Well it's not going to still be on the very front page of every news site for someone not in Ohio, is it. The news made stories about it, it may have been the top story on day 1, but I don't get what you expect news companies to do with no major new developments.

Do people want the same news story pinned at the top of all sites and television channels?

Would they rather media companies publish opinion articles saying how a chemical leak is bad 2 times a day?

Perhaps the bigger issue is the lack of a response by authorities, leading to no new story to report on.

It's big news, don't get me wrong, but they are parts of the world outside of Ohio, and other things going on too. People have heard of this event, so the media didn't hide shit. Not every disaster is going to get the same coverage as COVID, especially in today's social climate
