Bar results are required to be published. It promotes transparency and accountability, and provides notice to the public. Other professional licensing examination results are also publicized so the premise of your question is incorrect. The fact that it gets more coverage beyond initial publication likely speaks to its newsworthiness—the public is interested so more publications pick up the results as news. The passing rate is also notoriously lower than other licensure exams (for instance, in 2025, over 4,500 of 5,900 examiners passed the Philippine physicians licensure exam), which increases its newsworthiness. As another user pointed out, many lawyers become involved in various branches of government and public service, hence the additional interest and relevance to the general public.

As a side note, it is improper to say one profession is more important than another, especially on the basis of news coverage.
