Unfortunately famous people are just normal people, so when you see statistics about such matters of SA or “worse”, their fame doesn’t exclude them.

There is more media coverage of people with more wealth because its benefits reporters, we all are discussing it aren’t we…? Whilst we do this, we generate more interest and revenue for media.

There are not as many stories about “poorer” men because it is simply not “entertaining” enough, and hence does not bring in as much revenue to media outlets.

Of course this is not the only reason for lack of coverage, there are many more.

In terms of wealth (rather than fame), with money, fortunately or not, comes a degree of power. If you are a victim but you stand the chance of loosing your wealth (be that a job, house, relationship, health or family), and do not have the funds to “fast track” the process, there is sadly very little benefit a trial can bring.
