The News Media Coverage on the Pope and Catholic Church
 
Been watching it for the last few days. A couple of things come to mind...

Why is there such obvious grandstanding (especially from reporting Catholics) and fawning positive coverage of a manifestly religious event? I can't think of an instance where the American media would cover another religious event in this matter unless there was scandal associated with it.....

and speaking of scandal...

Why is the coverup of rapes in the Catholic Church being covered up so much in the coverage of this event? I mean, unless I have got it wrong, this is an organization that has covered up child rapes and molestation for decades. What am I missing here?
