nor on the side of freedom of expression - not something which the church 
has traditionally favoured

All the more ironic when the freedom being favoured is an obvious and gross 
abuse and invasion of privacy.

Concidering that the only reason that the NotW published the story was to
make money I find it difficult to care about their wimpering now.  If the
story was truely "in the public interest" they should shut up and pay the
cost of doing the public a favour.  Where did they get the idea that a good
deed will go unpunished?
