Soon, millions across the US will see "Spotlight," a
highly-acclaimed film that shows how dogged Boston Globe reporters, with
the help of courageous abuse victims, unearthed horrific clergy sex
crimes and cover-ups in the Boston archdiocese and beyond.
In anticipation of the movie, and the distressing picture it paints of complicit Catholic officials, Worcester church staff are disingenuously distancing themselves from both their neighboring diocese and their own indefensible track record of abuse. It’s smart public relations. But it doesn’t correspond with reality.
