Moral panics are always characterized by the exaggeration and distortion of some social issue that is to some extent real, but for which media and state actors can capitalize. There's a symbiotic relationship where officials disseminate their narratives and the media secures a large audience and advertisers. The media is desperate for clicks and this stuff is gold.

Again, nobody has adequately explained why this news outlet titled their story "trafficking" when no trafficking was involved. Nothing even close to trafficking occurred. Hell, there wasn't even any actual victim involved to traffic anywhere.
