While encryption is beneficial it is only usful in about 3% to 5% of data breach situations. (If you want to do a groundbreaking story you should focus on the fact that encryption offers very little protection in a hacking situation.)
Once a hacker has access to a running machine the data has already been decrypted by the Operating System or the running application and it is fully available to the hacker in the same decrypted format.
I will say it again, encryption is only helpful if a physical machine or harddrive has been stolen. So the big question was not "was the data encrypted' but how did the hackers gain access? By the way, I am willing to bet the data in this case was on an encrypted disk and as expected it did not help.
