There are many alternative hypotheses to your rather provocative and insulting one.
As China's prominence or output rise, it makes sense coverage would rise too.
It also makes sense that as China has more impact on the world, it will naturally affect the interests of a greater number of people. This in turn, means more people have a stake in something China is or isn't doing.

So much so that we are almost willingly blind to how far behind we've fallen. Also, the media and conversations towards China haven't been less than provocative. Your stance of China being more visible because they now have more impact is accurate. It's more humble, more like a true winner, a true sport who was number 1 for many years but accepts there's another game in town. But unfortunately, we're seeing more catty behavior than mature winner behavior
