The women were despised from one end of New Zealand to another. The Minister himself said they had falsified information so they were criminals. The rumours about being gang affiliates and sex workers were treated more credibly because the Minister had told us they lied on their application forms.

So who got wind of the error, started calling up the media saying these women were sex workers, setting the media on the government?
The NZH article was unambiguous: these women were sex workers.
Where is the accountability for publishing unverified information as factual? Who was the source multiple media sources citied?
Or are we just eating up what we're being served?
