A Rule of Thumb

Nicolás Gómez Dávila (1913-1994), Escolios a un Texto Implicito, II (Bogotá: Instituto Colombiano de Cultura, 1977), p. 140 (my translation):
The importance of an event is inversely proportional to the space the newspapers devote to it.

La importancia de un acontecimiento es inversamente proporcional al espacio que le dedican los periódicos.
The more space, the less importance.
