Catholic priests in Germany have applauded the news that a new sex abuse hotline is to be set up. The move comes after an intensive global media spotlight on the issue.
The Right Reverend The Bishop of Wank Freidrich Kindbelästiger, with the aid of an interpreter, spoke to us earlier. "I'm very excited about the prospect of this new service" he said. "With all of the media focus on the sexual proclivities of a supposedly celibate clergy the opportunity to engage in young people has been greatly reduced. This new hotline will enable every monsignor to easily find a victim to abuse without taking unnecessary risks that could increase their likelihood of being discovered."
"I urge all victims and potential victims to come forward and make themselves known to the hotline at the earliest possible occasion."

Ouch!
Or, why is it so hard to tell if this is news or satire?
Hmm, I kind of thought when I read about the hotline that the Catholic church will have gold-plated opportunity to persuade the callers that it was all a mistake.
