I don't know why schools of journalism don't hang their heads in shame when they look at the products of their so-called education. After all, is an "alter" boy one who has been neutered or spayed, or otherwise changed? Or perhaps the idiot writer meant to suggest this was an altar boy?

It's no wonder journalism majors are the laughing stock at most universities.

He should experience having his balls cut off. That might deter him from any future acts of molestation.

Wait a minuet, lets not jump the gun or rush to judgment.... Priests corn-dogging boys will probably be perfectly legal in Massachusetts in just a matter of weeks.

The rampant spelling and grammatical errors in the media today are quite revealing about the (lack of) intellectual aptitude and education of the current crop of journalists. But then again, journalism today is not about reporting the news: it's about shaping public opinion by disseminating propaganda. So as long as a "reporter" has the "correct" mindset and writes the "correct" spin, it doesn't really matter how unskilled or ignorant he or she might actually be.

You see the REAL story is this:

Homosexual Man Charged With Molesting Boy

A local homosexual Roman Catholic priest is charged with raping and sexually abusing a former altar boy....

This is the true face of homosexuality, just as the Sept 11 terrorists are the true face of Islam.

"assuat and corrpution "

Another sample of the author's accuracy.

Maybe he had an alterior motive for the spelling.

The Vatican Papists can only muster outrage when Americans have the temerity to defend themselves against Mohammedian monsters.

It is because they have no shame, a very poor education, and they just don't care.

"Altar."
