I agree.
Whether someone wants to read about it, or not read about it is - of course! - a personal decision.
If created characters fail to mention it (during a contextual discussion that involves what has happened/is happening in the real world) - then that would be the author's choice to mention it. If not, then the author felt that any mention of it might not be relevant to the story-line.
Therefore, not only does a
reader have a choice to read or not read, but the
author also has a choice to mention it or not to mention it using the characters he/she has created.
That fact remains - to go back to my "I agree" above - it happened, and it can never be 'un-happened'.
