"Dateline NBC" aired a documentary of the incident on 23 May 2010. The sinking is the subject of a song called "Oceanos" by Celtic rock band Coast. It was also discussed in an episode of "Nova" on 18 April 2012, entitled, "Why Ships Sink", which focused mainly on the "Costa Concordia" accident (whose commanding officer also fled while passengers were still aboard) and how it related to the "Titanic". Hills was interviewed in the special, and related that some years later he had been on board when the MS "Achille Lauro" of Star Lauro sank. The rescue featured in episode 4 of "Shockwave", first aired 21 December 2007. The NPR radio show and podcast Snap Judgment featured a first person account of the sinking as told by Moss Hills. The show "Extreme Weather: The Survivors" featured a segment on the sinking.
