A couple of questions: (i) what in the article establishes that the second interview about Becker was the same as the first interview referenced in the article (Answer: Nada); (ii) what in the article establishes that any money received by Becker was actually $20,000 (Answer: Nada) (likely, as Dolan said, just money for health care and less than $20,000); (iii) what in the article establishes the payment of money received by Becker was under the "laicization plan" (Nada).
All of this is "established" by inference. And as any one of us in New York knows any more, the NY Times cannot be trusted. If the Times had the facts, it would have stated them outright, not done so by inference.
But D 1 fell for it.

Ah, Indoctrinated Joe.... 
99.9% of people would trust Laurie Goldstein and the NY Times to tell the truth before any representative of the catholic church. The church has handled itself with breathtaking dishonesty.
Funny, all these terrible lies by the media, and no lawsuits from the church??? More damning, no comments on accusations by the church, other than church doublespeak. Just silence or a reluctant comment when they shit their pants.
Juke and jive all you want, Pedophile P. Joe, but Dolan paid off pedophiles rather than turn them into the police. This is a fact.
The catholic church, what a mess.

Milwaukee Journal SentinelA document made public in the archdiocese's bankruptcy recounts a 2003 meeting of its Finance Council, which included then-Archbishop Timothy Dolan and his auxiliary, Bishop Richard Sklba. According to the minutes, members discussed the church's handling of sex abuse complaints, a looming budget deficit and various proposals to cut costs. Among them: offering "unassignable priests" $20,000 for laicization, "($10,000 at the start and $10,000 at the completion of the process)."
The church has acknowledged paying $10,000 to at least one former priest, Franklyn Becker, who was defrocked in 2004, after Isely, who learned of the payment from Becker, raised the issue in 2006.
The 2003 minutes appear to be the first indication that the archdiocese may have had a formal policy to pay problem priests to leave.
A second former priest, Jerome Wagner of Fond du Lac, said Wednesday that he received $20,000 to seek laicization but characterized it as charity rather than a payoff on the part of the archdiocese.
Dolan, now a cardinal and archbishop of New York, used the same language when he defended the Becker payment in 2006.
Of the 44 priests who appear on the archdiocese's list of priests with credible allegations of sex abuse, 14 of those still living have been laicized. Most of them did not return telephone calls on Wednesday. Of those who could be reached, in addition to Wagner, one declined to comment and another, laicized in the mid-1990s, said he received nothing.
The catholic church, what a mess.

But all you have to support that is distortions drawn from inferences of incorrectly juxtaposed facts. And you are so myopic that you don't even grasp that.D1B wrote: Juke and jive all you want, Pedophile P. Joe, but Dolan paid off pedophiles rather than turn them into the police. This is a fact.
Then again, why should today be any different than any other day?
Dude, the NY Times sucks and lies. Laurie Goldstein is just another Jason Blair. It is not the "paper of record" anymore.
It's great you call yourself a "free thinker." It is an ironic name for people who are the most narrow "thinkers" you can possibly encounter.
