They also don't have Kripke, Putnam or Fodor. I dare say that going by relative prestige in their philosophical cultures, Kripke is a more startling omission than any of the three you mentioned (http://leiterreports.typepad.com/blog/2015/01/most-important...). That's not a point about merit, btw, just about who people would write about if personal articles showed favoritism.

I wonder if there's a tendency to not write articles on living philosophers (as opposed to some particular aspect of their work).

Still, I do suspect there is less work on 20th century Continental philosophy (so far as that's a well defined thing).
