It seems like they are trying to encourage sympathy for the group and for those women. Yes, some of those women should have sympathy but so far the ones that have been "interviewed" do not appear to deserve any. It could be that they have had their lifestyle so engrained into their life that they don't know right from wrong. To the point of ignoring what happens to girls forced into a planned marriage (prostitution).

1. Either the networks regard the story as something
titillating, or they are selling it that way.

I see nothing titillating about pedophilia, spousal abuse and child abuse. That is what is happening and there should be no spin on it.
