Taxpayers have the most money, and aren't as interested in protecting the money, unlike people that have ownership.

If your goal is to extract a percentage, find the biggest cashflow to maximize profits.

Maybe it seems relevant because those are the ones getting caught?

Or maybe the corporate owned news doesn't like to publish corporate corruption?

This only makes sense if the corruption is in the same corp that's doing the reporting.

Corporations have an incentive to undercut one another and compete. They'll only band together when something affects them all at the same time, which is basically only economy-wide events.

By that logic, the defense industry should have orders of magnitude more problems than the average research university.
