And the world has a right to know the truth, always, not the salacious bait crammed down our throats by those seeking their five minutes of fame. Life is not black and white. Its complicated. Theres nuance. Always nuance,” he added.OceanGate tragedyThe OceanGate submarine had five individuals on board including the OceanGate CEO, Stockton Rush (61).
