Think the New York Times is biased against the Church?

Frustrated that the Washington Post doesn’t give the Pope a fair shake?

Well, take a look at this headline from Pravda, the formally-official news organ of the Soviet Union:

The Satanic Roman Catholic Church in limbo ^[1]

It’s the story of the 9-year-old girl in Brazil who had an abortion, which led to the excommunications of her mother and the abortionist. Pravda doesn’t worry too much about the facts, however, as it reports that the bishop excommunicated the girl and not the rapist.

I know that the American newspapers are laying off workers left and right – perhaps some have gone over to Russia to find work?
