The main story is neither a jacket, nor a magazine cover, nor a restaurant's service policies.

It's 2,350 kids being separated from their parents by the government and said government's inability to reunite them.

ONE young child forcibly taken from her mother by ICE, caged, and lost in the system would be the main story.
2,350 feels apocalyptic.
