Do you ever get the feeling they knew that #Titan vessel imploded early on, and they just drew out this 'They might be alive' thing for ... reasons.

@lydiaconwell Sure. Most people thought all the coverage was due to them being rich, but I always suspected that the media loves stories with a continued development, so that they can fill their timeslots for several days. It's like the movie _Ace in the Hole_.

Same thing happened with the Chilean workers who got trapped in the mine, or those kids who drowned in a cave. None of them were rich, but the media found a way to milk the story for days, even weeks.
