I mean it helps that it isn't front page news. It's completely reasonable to disagree about the scale of a story. Most people disagree with you and shellenberger that this is important. What place do you have to demand that we interpret things the same way you do?

"most people" cannot disagree with them about the story's importance, because "most people" haven't heard about the it thanks to the suppression campaign. That's the whole issue you are trying to downplay.
