Here is a comment by a journalist covering the town.

"LW: Is there anything else you want to add that we’re not talking about?

AS: In general, it’s really frustrating how little South Sudan is covered in the media, and when it is covered it’s covered as a blanket, tragic African story. It doesn’t give the people any dignity and it certainly doesn’t allow for the situation to be understood with any nuance. Without that, tangible solutions are going to be hard to come by.

Even this story, I pitched it and an editor said, “Yeah, people are raping each other in South Sudan. There’s no news hook.”"
