It has an outcome AFTER its over. his point was... if you didn't report on it till the outcome you'd never hear about it. They're reporting on the allegations and that's a normal part of reporting. you can't only report on the trial outcomes or else it would never be talked about ahead of time.

You can't wait until the outcome is decided to report on something because then you wouldn't report on it until the trial was over and no one would hear about it for years.
