The media can; and I think we all agree the media should; but I don't see any evidence of the media having done so.

Just based on the news article, there's limited information concerning the mother's attempts to date to obtain information or her son's release -- all she talks about is the raid and the Patriot Act. Not "Well, I called/visited my congressman and Senator and this is what they have or haven't done"; "I've called the ACLU or Legal Aid and this is what they said.", etc.

It makes her look a lot more passive and/or helpless than I think a typical parent would be in such a case. That's kinda what give me the impression that there's something more to it.
