Sure, but face it: the scientific literature is not featured by the news media, and not often presented in forms that are likely to gain public appreciation.
Proposing: 1) Do what the devious disinformation specialists do: focus on youtube content - with plain language.

Saudi Arabia’s Newest Sportswashing Strategy: Sponsorship Of Women’s World Cup
FIFA’s decision to award Saudi Arabia’s state tourism authority sponsorship of the 2023 Women’s World Cup shows shocking disregard for suffering and repression of Saudi’s courageous women’s rights defenders.Minky Worden (Human Rights Watch)
