Nope.

There's a certain spectacle to a school shooting that the media cannot resist, given the general age of the victims in what should be a safe environment, but they're far from the only mass shootings (workplace/night clubs/concerts/etc) and even further from the only shootings that get reported, though I will concede that higher body counts get a signal boost nationally

Yes but only spree shootings are reported because they're vastly more exciting.

Just the homicides in Chicago cover more than double the homicides of spree shootings in the entire united states in a year, a vast majority done over drug violence.

Then there's the countless body count of the meaningless Middle East wars that only exists because the war industry is a huge part of our economy.

Both of those are direct results of the government. I find the whole outrage basically zoomed in on spree killings disproportionate and biased. They're like the favorite sibling that scraped her knee getting all the attention.
