"... perspective is everything."
Indeed.
If, for example, Rolling Stone were to approach this story as others have approached stories about the high cost of healthcare in America, i.e., by comparing the costs there with the costs in other countries with similarly high standards of living, it might produce a more interesting perspective. Readers might see that there are students in certain other countries who are having their educations financed under far more financially-friendly terms than those now presented to American youths.
When a journalist shows the reader the healthcare costs in her country compared to those in other comparable countries, maybe it sends a powerful message to the reader. Journalists covering education costs should perhaps consider this approach.
