WUXTRY, WUXTRY, READ ALL ABOUT IT.
HOLE IN SUN-TIMES STORY
See "Pastors rip Vatican's 'vile' language that condemns gays," about "a group of Catholic pastors" saying the Vatican uses "vile and toxic" language about gays and lesbians and Cardinal George's letter response to their so-called open letter. So-called because it may be open to some of those guys but it ain't open to us Sun-Times readers. How so? Because no pastor is named of the "two dozen" who complained. Hence gaping hole in otherwise good story.
Either the writer, Shamus Toomey, got the story only by promising not to use any names -- Chi Trib does not have it -- in which case he should say so, or . . . what? I don't know. Million stories in the naked city, yes, but don't they usually have names?
