That's like saying there's a targeted campaign to ignore Skype because these articles don't mention it. You might like Wire, but it's not an app that people concerned with privacy should be using.
They have done a bunch of shady things:
1. They lied about having end-to-end encryption in their app: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2855745/new-communications-ap...
2. They lied about being open source for years.
3. They lied about being based in switzerland.
They also have serious problems with their app:
1. The "encrypted" calls leak enough information to be able to reconstruct the audio.
2. Many features in the app, like GIF search, transmit plaintext directly back to Wire.
3. They rolled their own crypto, and experts disapprove of the choices they made.
Journalists who write articles like this and don't mention Wire are doing their job. They've consulted with experts and aren't spreading misinformation.
