Excellent points, Rich. I wonder if laziness is also a factor.
I notice that one of the all-female crew who've just been blasted into space is Gayle King. Here she is giving Giuffre a very easy time.

Yes it's not just the tabloids. Even Social Media is frightened. They HAVE to cover it (it's a great story about a media manufactured "superstar") but the holes in the story are now so clear and the ramifications stunning. Like Starmer as DPP suddenly finding as PM he's put himself up as a target.

It's laughable that the tabloids clearly have no idea how to cover this and seem to be hoping that it just fades away - unlike the dogged way they've pursued other such stories. They appear so afraid of being accused of insensitivity towards her that they just leave their reports without any coherent narrative. Was she in an accident? Was she injured as she claimed? Was she given four days to live? Why even cover the story in the first place if you are that terrified of writing the 'wrong' thing?

She seems to prove that money can't buy you happiness or class.
Article is behind a paywall, but if you keep refreshing the page, you can read it. Apparently Giuffre's spokeswoman had been, as I suspected, likening the Mail's reporters' approach to the pursuit of Princess Diana.
... Our team of journalists was on the ground in Western Australia after the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking victim's Instagram post sent shockwaves around the world.
But, proving the old saying that you make your own luck in life, the Mail's reporters were left stunned when Giuffre quite literally pulled up alongside them at a feed store, north of Perth, about 4.30pm.
Before senior reporter Stephen Gibbs could even approach Giuffre - whose injuries were not immediately obvious - she lashed out, sticking up her middle finger and telling our team to 'get the f*** out of here'.
Our photographer took some photos from his car and Giuffre did not give us a chance to speak to her further. Giuffre's car, driven by her brother Danny Wilson, drove off into the distance without any further incident and our pictures of her rude gesture went around the world.
Then Giuffre's 'full service' public relations agent Dini von Mueffling went into damage control, fashioning a version of events that simply had no basis in reality.
Von Mueffling found a willing audience in the tabloids at News Corp Australia, especially Sydney's Daily Telegraph run by editor Ben English, which had been so comprehensively scooped on the Giuffre story over the past fortnight that they figured their only chance for an 'exclusive' would be to smear their betters.
What the Mail had pulled off in doing their journalistic legwork was like what the paparazzi had done to Princess Di! von Mueffling gasped to News Corp lackeys.
Von Mueffling claimed that, in scenes reminiscent of an action movie, Giuffre had been followed to the feed store by the Mail's reporters.
Then, she was pinned down by our team who 'refused to move their car out of the way' - blocking her path to a lonely country road.
Then they had brazenly ignore requests to leave the feed store's car park and had gone on to 'breach' Giuffre's property!
Excuse us?
We know you're basically an eyewitness, von Mueffling, given you are approximately 18,450km away in New York City.
But there was no exciting pursuit of Giuffre and no blocking of the car. Giuffre literally pulled up next to our team.
Nothing 'unsafe' or 'disturbing' occurred (except, perhaps, Giuffre screaming an obscenity). And there was no traffic, unless you're counting tumbleweeds. ...

Update - not dead yet but "poisoned by lies". Makes a change.
