While the media has control, the media is not omniscient or equipped with the capacity to handle all and every story. As somebody married to a journalist I can tell you that the whole primary news business of a country with 90m inhabitants such as Germany is processed by less than 5000 journalists. If you consider that the primary way that news media receive their news is via news agencies which have maybe 1000 employees in Germany then it becomes a strange argument that it would be the media's fault to cover some random litigation. The media isn't choosing most things in the sense that online news media don't have a plotting war room where they decide what gets published and what doesn't, but rather they observe the news feeds of the agencies and their competitors and pick from this what gets printed in their own page. Even if you are right that a news site leadership will equip different departments with staff and prescribe length etc, it is much less a guided process. Not publishing on Oculus/Luckey/Zenimax isn't in any moral ballpark anyway.
