I'm reminded of a quote by the late poet David Antin, which I can not find at the moment, but found one which gets at a similar idea, which I think is relevant here because really theres two types of news: the kind you can predict will happen and plan for dedicatibg the recources needed to cover, and then the other kind, which in some cases is arguably more important, but because there's no plan in place to pay for the work involved in reporting on it it's trickier to have a permanent establishment that is responsible for it.
