It's so odd. He intentionally went to London but got a single ticket despite it being £1 more for a return (kinda think the ticket seller should have been suspicious there?). The police took 27 days to look at the CCTV at King's Cross. They don't have any indication he was talking to someone online to meet. I saw people speculate he went to a concert because a band who are affiliated with Slipknot were playing that day and he had a Slipknot t-shirt but then why no return ticket? Also his dad had taken him to concerts so why do it without asking this time?
As for the media coverage what catches the public imagination and media attention can be pure chance.

It's all very odd and all the more reason for the police to take it seriously. You could be forgiven for thinking that police resources are allocated according to media coverage and social media demand. It's shocking really, this lad was only 14 and very little appears to have been done. The endless hours of police time and millions spent on Madeleine McCann must seem like an insult to this family who seem to have had little help and not much more sympathy.
