the difference is in order for a person to be labeled as a pedophile in the media means that they have been previously convicted of that crime. it's not an arbitrary detail but a reflection of the increased danger posed to the child because they've been kidnapped by someone who has previously been convicted of abusing children.

the media cannot arbitrarily label people at their leisure. think of the ensuing litigation if that were the case... their broadcasting license would be revoked so quickly it wouldn't be funny. to report the increased level of danger an abducted child is in, is NOT an arbitrary detail to most people.

i don't care what turns a person on, but NO ONE calls themselves a pedophile prior to being convicted of the crime. see the difference?
