  1. You raise a valid point about the focus of media coverage. Wind energy is often a controversial topic, and incidents involving renewable energy sources can attract more attention due to the ongoing debates about sustainability, environmental impact, and energy policy.

It’s important to recognize that any mishap, regardless of the type of equipment involved, can have implications for safety, community resources, and infrastructure. However, the context certainly shapes how these stories are presented and perceived.
