It takes a combination of someone posting a story, and enough others upvoting it, for it to end up on the front page. Perhaps these two things simply haven't happened yet? This is the first I heard about it, and when I Google it, I get news articles ranging in age from 2 hours to 3 minutes ago. This is new news. Give it 48 hours, and try posting a good source article to HN. Edit, the sibling comment mentions nine postings on HN already for it. Maybe the few votes it is getting are being split up between the 9, preventing any one from gaining critical mass. Maybe you could message dang - sometimes multiple posts can be merged when referencing the same event, but I don't know what the guidelines around that are.
