Sex, privacy and newspapers

Today in this article on Star Online:

there seems to be a major conflict between their opinions & UMNO's.
In this article it says -

"Despite everything we say about the right to privacy and our public position that Wong did no wrong, it will be hypocritical if those concerned still insist that she (Elizabeth Wong) pay the price with her resignation."

And Khir Toyo on the other hand is condemning her to her resignation.

So either Star is feeling the pinch from the public preference of transparent news & opninions (Malaysia Kini has been battling neck to neck in traffic with Star) or they made a mistake and let this slip OR its just something that's been planned to tame public anger.
