Has she made an individual assessment on all of the 198 people's cases and bans to form the opinion that the majority are guilty of being "Hooligans" and "a risk to the safety of the public" or is she once again just shooting her mouth of after hearing one side of the story?

As to how she got the list.
Whoever gave it to her be it from FFA, Police or a Stadium they have breached a confidential agreement. Those who where banned were notified that there information was released to Police and Stadium Management under a confidential agreement and that there information was to only be used for security purposes.
Yeah from memory between something being 'news worthy' and 'fair use' laws regarding photos etc she seems to have her ass covered legally (I think it was noted only a court order can prevent it getting published) but that won't stop the individual facing action if it is established who leaked it. The leaker is liable not Wilson.

So unless Wilson gives up her source (nope) the leak will prob go unpunished.

As for the morality of it? Hey man I'm with you but journos and morals rarely coexist, Wilson won't be the first and won't be the last.
