no accidents in media
When you “happen to notice” something in mass media, you cannot treat that as a random event. Media content is assembled intentionally by people who usually have something to sell and a point they are trying to make, and you are steered toward specific content in ways you cannot always detect. When the content of a media channel appears more random, this is more likely to represent the stress of a business starting to break down under financial stress and time pressure than any true randomness or whimsy.
