The only mention I have seen of this on the media here mentioned a protest against the war. It was glossed over in seconds. One wonders if there is a whiff of right wing corruption and bullshit in the "independent" news outlets...

The BBC is supposed to be independent, @Katherine Bond. Sometimes it seems to bend over backwards to seem evenhanded Other times, it seems to downplay what is clearly newsworthy.
It's complicated. This particular (non-commercial) network was deeply loathed by the conservatives, so last time they were in government they not only cut funding to the bone but also appointed their own people to the board. That seems to have affected them quite badly.
PBS mentioned it for 30 or so seconds. That's all I've seen on mainstream/legacy/useless media. I get my news from independent journalists so that I get a better picture of the world.

Are you trying to get across to your news outlets? Ours aren’t so “independent” either.

I trust BBC more than our corporate owned network news channels like CBS.
There’s more reliable news on YouTube.
