I agree with the premise, but in the airplane news case; It’s a big deal at the FAA when planes even get close to each other. When they touch an even more stringent investigation will (at least used to) take place.
It’s news that there was a collision because it’s a big fuckup even on the ground and taxiing.
This. Aviation has had an incredible safety record over the last 10+ years. That we’ve had multiple accidents, even minor ones, over the last several months is a huge departure from modern industry standards, and is quite concerning for the future of the aviation industry.
