To the editor:
Just finished reading your editorial, “Media Bias,” in the March 25 issue. I’m disappointed in the whining tone you have taken. I guess you and your family are not one of the many who have been affected by the lecherous activities of your parish priest. “Even if it happened 30 or 40 years ago.”
Individual Catholics and the Catholic Church itself continue to be popular targets for media bias in our country.
Whenever there is an allegation of sexual abuse by a Catholic priest, newspapers usually publish an article on the front page, while television and radio news reports lead with the story. Even if the alleged abuse happened 30 or 40 years ago, it gets prime coverage.
