The next court date has been set for February 21.

As much as I’d like to believe it’s a conspiracy, news organizations make money from clicks. There isn’t much for them to monetize between now and February 21, so they’re focusing on more immediate stuff.
If they can get good photos and text from the next court date, Luigi will get more coverage.
Edit: there have been like five plane crashes, one US inauguration, and major US wildfires since his last court date.
What would the news headline be?
Luigi Still In Custody While Waiting For Hearing
or
Mangione’s Attorneys Presumably Working Hard
or
Brian Thompson Still Dead
News doesn’t tend to report when things are the same as they were yesterday. If his lawyers aren’t talking to the press, and the prosecutors aren’t talking to the press, and the trial won’t start for another month, what exactly are the reporters going to report on?
I would love to see the headlines if this was the norm.
President Carter Still Dead, We Confirmed
Obama Not President, Maybe Enjoying Retirement?
Epstein’s Suicide Not Being Investigated
Actually any headline of something not happening sounds super suspicious lol
You should label your images if they are AI generated.
I didn’t even notice until your comment. That’s such a weird image to have an AI make; how hard is it to google ‘billboard in a city or whatever’ and run with the first result?
Not that hard at all. Though these days a lot of Google images results are also AI generated. I’m not even sure if the image above is real or not.
