When government policy is driven by popularism, in response to a media frenzy, a frenzy driven by the profit motive & cashing-in on 'hot' stories, injustice is inevitable.

It is because her story no longer makes money for media nor advances political careers. She needs to learn this cost of popularism. And so do we.
