It's no secret that journalists and reporters stick torches up the arses of anyone like Matthews the minute a story breaks. They would have known straight away that Shannon was on Social Services "at risk" list earlier in her life, to name but a few facts that would throw question marks all over the Shannon Matthews case.
Of course, they can only report what they see, regardless of what they know, so must have been rubbing their hands will glee at the prospect of what they must have suspected all along - that Matthews was behind the kidnapping from the start.
In short, the press would have gone all out to make her look innocent, so it's all the more sensational when she turns out not to be...they love it.
