Totally apples and oranges.
I followed the news about the sub diligently while there was hope that those folks were still alive (a desperate race against time and a dramatic rescue) but once it was known that they had died, I largely lost interest.
I'm actually more interested in the migrants story now - very upset and enraged by reports that it was the Greek version of the coast guard that got them killed - while trying to kick them out of Greek waters no less.
