The Age reprints Guardian piece on the Church

The Age has a one page spread on the Catholic Church and Pope Benedict in the lead up to his visit to Britain today. I began reading it and then thought "I've read this before..." In fact, it is an edited reprint of an article I linked to in a previous post from The Guardian. I was wondering if the editors just took out the positive bits and left the negative bits. In comparing the two versions, I concluded that there was some evidence of this, but not much, so I won't make anything of it.

  2. The article appeared on page 17 of the Age I bought and contained nothing I haven't heard before.

  3. Schutz should pass this onto Media Watcg at the ABC as they pick up sloppy journalism if the GUARDIAN is not acknowledged
