It's not the offense, it's the cover-up

I'm just being sarcastic, Blanco. I completely agree with you on this issue, and I also agree there's no way at all to do it. If people stopped buying sensationalist crap, people would stop selling it. An when nobody rubbernecks at an accident, there will be fewer traffic jams.

The issue I see here (beyond the one coverd by Foley's resignation) is if there was indeed an effort to ignore this by leadership. And you don't need the 'get a ruler' quotes to investigate that.

On the other hand, I'd feel I got gyped if I hadn't read the transcripts of Bill Oreilly's phone sex harrassment calls. So go figure.
