The feral male and their sponsors Channel 7 have prevailed - Monsignor
Baron has resigned
Drink driving Peter Meakin and his news crew at Channel 7 can
congratulate themselves on a job well done. Monsignor Geoff Baron has
resigned as Dean of St Patricks Cathedral. No doubt Meakin will shout a
round at the local pub before he struggles to resist the inclination to get
in his car and drive home.
The media have bestowed in their usual style the title of 'foul-mouth
priest' on Monsignor Baron. So now it's never Monsignor Baron that's talked
about in news reports. It's always 'that foul-mouth priest' or 'foul-mouth
Fr Baron' or 'St Patricks' foul-mouth priest'.
I have already pointed out the gross hypocrisy and blind bigotry involved
in yet another media frenzy. But it's worth pointing out again how Meakin
and his billion dollar media company have not only ignored the criminal
actions of those skateboarders but have gone so far as to take up their
cause and fete them.
To bring into the studio and interview members of that feral group (who
pushed, punched, and spat on Monsignor Baron and caused $30,000 damage) as
if they were the wronged party is simply beyond belief. It proves that there
is no shame with Peter Meakin who, I bet London to a brick, has one of the
foulest mouths in the media. |
