I maintain a database of news articles from local news sources and sometimes query it if I feel something is underreported re Syria. Sometimes it is and sometimes it's just a wrong feeling. Developments in Daraa/Quneitra were much less reported than developments in E. Ghouta earlier this year.
This x 100. The news is being reported, but so many of us just digest what the aggregators and algorithms decide is most relevant - it saves a ton of time. Today's readers need to be curious to be well-informed.
