The coverage feels like universal condemnation while the cover-up is not.

Most priests are guilty of nothing except maybe confidentiality of confessions and trusting their cardinals but it sure does feel like all of them are boinking kids once "media" gets done with them.

So, you think that Catholic (or any church) hierarchy endemically buggering little boys and it being hidden for years, decades and even centuries is not worth universal condemnation for those crimes and that those who covered them up are not guilty of some responsibility for this behaviour being enabled to continue unabated?

It is interesting that most priests were content to put the welfare of other criminal cardinals and priests and their church, over the interest of crimes against the youth they were supposed to protect?

And this is moral and just?

Has the media ever implied that all priests are guilty of this despicable behaviour?

No. It is just people like you making excuses for the individuals involved, the hierarchies' failures and this Church being rotten to the core.
