Is this true? Can the left be so degenerate?

The Express is a tabloid - not a newspaper. It's published by far-right conservative populists. The main fare is the Princess Dianna conspiracy.

The story here was pretty much hashed out 5 years ago. Hewitt has apologized a thousand times and you can focus on the caption below her picture. Ms Hewitt retired from politics 11 years ago.

@hlpflwthat Reminds me of a publication here in the States called the Federalist, which brands itself as "the serious conservative news outlet." Their brand persona revolves around this idea that most right wing media is goofy and sensationalist, but the Federalist is reliable and professional.

And yet a few months ago they published an article defending the molestation of children by Catholic priests, claiming that such an action is only deplorable because it was homosexual in nature. Had male priests been sexually assaulting underage girls instead of underage boys, it would have been perfectly fine and they'd have done no wrong.

@BlueMetalChick I think I read that 'Mullarkey' - if it was the same piece.

Hey here is an idea lets all shoot the messenger. The study they cite is pure bunk as is most studies but as is commonly held studies are part of 'science' therefore .....

@hippyjoe1955 Studies like these generally are not considered part of physical science but rather political science. Which study are you referring to though?
