B16 Blames Pedophilia Reporting on the Media

"'I am personally convinced that the constant presence in the press of the sins of Catholic priests, especially in the United States, is a planned campaign, as the percentage of these offences among priests is not higher than in other categories, and perhaps it is even lower.'

'In the United States, there is constant news on this topic, but less than 1% of priests are guilty of acts of this type,' he said. 'The constant presence of these news items does not correspond to the objectivity of the information nor to the statistical objectivity of the facts.

'Therefore, one comes to the conclusion that it is intentional, manipulated, that there is a desire to discredit the Church. It is a logical and well-founded conclusion.'"
