Saints fight to avoid disclosing emails in Catholic abuse crisis (MERGED)

So the Saints PR team helps the Church disclose the names of credibly accused abusers, through the media. How does this warrant a justification to make all their emails public? Publishing a list is the opposite of hiding, no?

I don't think anyone is being accused of covering up pedophilia in this case. It's the corporate response that the Church has decided to use which people find so appalling. Make it all public. Own up to what was done, who did it, and make restitution. Stop trying to "soften the blow" or whatever the frick.
