It's context.
Qantas management and its maintenance workers are currently in dispute over salaries.
Management is possibly planning to relocate some maintenance work overseas.
Meanwhile Qantas has a legendary safety record.
So if, in the midst of all this, a chunk falls off a Qantas plane, that'd be especially newsworthy.
And on the flip side, if the media didn't report it, that'd be a cover-up, wouldn't it?
