I think you are overlooking the fact he is focusing on the built up "expectation".

It's perfectly obvious the media (social and news) went OTT with this story, but the follow up reality check fell flat.

That's his angle.

The reality check is boring, as it affirms the status quo. Doubly boring because the Samsung story is yesterday's news.

It needs to overcome any number of more interesting stories that are both more timely and more novel.
