...to paraphrase a regretful Dan Rather.
The video broadcast itself may not change too many minds about the Alliance. The problem the Alliance faces is that the evidence still exists (a planet with 3 million dead bodies), and the curious can corroborate and verify the story by going there themselves. So what should the Alliance do? Blockade visits to the planet? Release a deadly biological agent on its surface? Nuke the whole thing? Any of these actions would tend to verify the content of the video by screaming "cover-up." The Alliance should have nuked the planet in the first place.

Miranda was almost unapproachable because Reivers surround it, and Reivers don't appear to be unintelligent either, they're just violently unstable and canibalistic.

  They are also evidence against the Alliance, esp. if one is captured and the cause of the condition is determined. Remove all the evidence.
