The Media - Why Is the MSM Ignoring This Priest Scandal?
I guess some stories are more "interesting" than others...
At NewsBusters.org, Dave Pierre asks, "Why Is the MSM Ignoring This Priest Scandal? Could It Be ...?" :
"The story: A priest works at a Miami high school as a history teacher and assistant chaplain. Nude photographs of him interacting physically with other men are discovered on the Internet. The priest resigns from his job. Graphic Internet photos are readily available for the media."
"In light of the recent media frenzy over Rev. Ted Haggard (5,500 results at Google News), it sounds like everything would be ripe for a story that the media would just love to jump all over. But, curiously, the mainstream media has essentially ignored this story. Why?"
