I think that the media is biased toward drama. Seriously. For the most part (I assume we are not talking about Fox News, which I agree with most of the thinking world is biased to the right) they want people to watch - they want people to care, so if news is dramatic they are going to cover it. If there is a dramatic angle, they are going to want to find it and go in that direction.
If one particular sector is more dramatic than the other, they will get the press.
