The story itself is no longer news. The film does not focus on the molestation of children by missionaries. Instead, it tells the story of the spotlight group's tracking process from a common news to a very big news. The whole bgm of the movie is very peaceful and low, just to tell the audience that these are not some special cases, but the stories that happened around you. Even on the day the final article is published, the editors appear not to have revenge, justice, or relief, but rather as if their work has just begun. Yes, the director just wanted to tell you that things are not over yet.
