This is the wrong attitude. 

MacPorts must tell them, not some random user/contributer like me.

Everyone has tech reporter contacts: their email and Twitter handle and contact info is all posted online with every article.

And the press likely won’t think an issue is important or interesting enough to cover if the related organization doesn’t think it’s interesting enough to post an announcement about it.
