Yes, for the first time the Daily Mail is being taken more seriously for it's coverage of these cases. But remember, the UK has far more freedom to print what they want because the cases aren't being tried there. The US doesn't have that same freedom because the cases are being tried here. And because of that they have a legal, moral, and ethical responsibility to not print anything that could be considered as tainting a jury. Once the trials begin, mainly the Maxwell case, trust me, the MSM will be all over it like the OJ Trial! So I don't consider the US media to be covering up anything as much as I consider them to having to be very careful, especially during a time where the current administration has deemed them to be "fake news". I would hardly compare the Wall Street Journal or the NY Times or as you say ABC World News to the "Daily Mail"

Having said all that I know it must be very frustrating for the victims to see only the UK covering their story right now and how it could seem to them that the US MSM as only covering it up.
