The Spin

Narrative A

Like every other experimental or exploring endeavor, the Titan voyage had major inherent risks that its passengers were well aware of, yet they decided the opportunity to see the Titanic up close outweighed the dangers of the dive. OceanGate was not expecting the Titan to be found and rescued by the taxpayer-funded Coast Guard, so its right that participation in the dive was solely at the discretion of informed passengers.

Narrative B

While the tragedy of the Titan should not lead to a halt in undersea voyages, either for scientific purposes or tourism, it is crucial that we draw lessons from this incident to ensure that such disasters will not happen ever again. The sinking of the Titanic prompted the introduction of international regulations regarding ocean-going ships; now, it's time to set international standards for submersibles.

New York Times

Establishment-critical narrative

The submersible's implosion and the death of its occupants is undoubtedly tragic. At the same time, it's telling that the world rallied to find a missing sub while giving minimal coverage to the shipwrecked migrants that went missing off the coast of Greece last week. The scale of global media interest and effort by international marine agencies trying to investigate Titan's loss reveals a depressing hierarchy when it comes to value of life — more resources should be directed towards missing migrants.
