The NYTimes has a live blog - it was only pushed below the fold on the front page because of the school shooting: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2021/11/30/nyregion/ghislaine-maxwell-trial https://www.nytimes.com/live/2021/11/30/nyregion/ghislaine-m... It's also the main headline on the frontpage of the BBC atm: https://www.bbc.com/news https://www.bbc.com/news Some people are mistaking not reading with it not being covered.

> it was only pushed below the fold on the front page because of the school shooting Is this known or a guess? Reading Manufacturing Consent (as well as @nyt_diff) has led me to believe that we should not jump to come up with charitable excuses for why media does not cover stories in the way we think they should.

The story has been on the front page of every news website I've checked today. Loading a few of the usual news sites shows it's still near the top, although the tragic school shooting is obviously the higher priority news story right now. But you're right: The topic of discussion all over Twitter and Reddit is about the lack of mainstream news coverage, which is such a weird claim to make when it can be disproven with 60 seconds of loading any news website.

  Checked to see: - NYT has one 100px tall box, 4 pages below the fold - WaPo has coronavirus, acai bowls, Biden, Sydney Powell above fold, Ghislaine 2 pages down - CNN I don't see Maxwell or Ghislaine anywhere but one Epstein box bottom 1st page - Fox has two boxes, both below fold
