Fair point. But I wanted to make clear that such crimes do get coverage, as that was questioned above. It is also right that they hardly will get international coverage.
If this had happened in my neighborhood, or most of yours, none of us would now be hearing about it.
For anyone living in a greater metropolitan area in North America with a home value of under $10mil, home invasions do NOT get reported locally, and certainly not internationally. This made the news because of the neighborhood, which out of the hundreds of small neighborhoods in the greater Toronto area even has its own Wikipedia page.
It is moneyed. It is exclusive. It also now not as safe as it was once believed to be by its residents, high walls and everything.
And here you are, pretending like the money isn’t the news. But I saw you coming and left an exception just for you, lol. If you’d read further than the first phrase before you got offended you’d have seen it for yourself.
The money, and not the attack itself, is why this is being reported worldwide on billionaire-run media: the news is that big money failed to protect in the exact situation where it was expected to protect its owners the most.
That has all kinds of connotations for the ultra-rich, not least in regard to the politicians and lawmakers they buy.
Actually, home invasions of that brutality would be in the local news here, no matter who the victim is.
BBC is international news. Pretty big difference from local news

That’s not what OP said. Sure, in your local news, but OP or I, wouldn’t know about it, unless you have many CEOs as neighbors.
