What Yassmin said and did, particularly her claim that Islam is the most feminist religion, was absurd, controversial and unfamiliar. Pretty much the definition of newsworthy.
What Folau said was completely uninteresting. Everyone already knows where gays go when they die. It was only the hysterical, cowardly and most likely illegal conspiracy to get him fired that made him newsworthy. He has handled the situation with a quiet dignity, sticking to his position and calmly going about seeking justice.
Pretty much the opposite of Yassmin. Watching her dig herself in deeper with every comment was like watching a slow motion train wreck, finally ending with a crescendo of her blaming everyone but herself for the stupid poo she pulled. She tried to do a Kim Kardashian, but was totally unprepared for the response and she refused to learn from any of her mistakes along the way. She fled to London, tail between her legs, still blaming others.

I have grown up and been with these people for decades.
What you have said is exactly what they are.
They are quietly spoken, honest, gentle, loving people.
Whenever they speak, be quiet and listen intently.
They are a beautiful people.
