The Media coverage was pretty offensive. Here's an article written by the Age's Julia Medew. I know after reading it, the person the article was about was in tears. Here's her article: http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/prostitute-to-sue-brothel-over-gun-20110712-1hc7n.html
Of course I'm wasn't going to take that lying down and wanted to write about all of the things Julia over looked. Here's was my response:
