Oh there's people OD'ing and dying out there. They just don't put it on the news because no one would care. Not to sound like a dink or nothing, but an OD is an OD. Once you've heard it, it becomes old news.

Car crashes, killings, suicides and such always have a story behind them. Someone OD'ing from drugs is just someone OD'ing from drugs. On the newscast it'd be like, "Today, a man died from a herion overdose...." Yes....aaaand. You know, just not interesting once we've seen it/heard about it.
