And I'm sorry, there is a BIG difference between a nun and a sister. Should I start calling all Brothers Priests too?
Mainstream media sources tend to be biased against the Catholic Church - and why use a 2nd or 3rd party source when you can use the original sources? If you want to know what the Catholic social teachings are, why not go to the Catholic Church? Why go to newspapers and other media for their interpretations?

Your assumption is one of ignorance, and one does not need to read catechism and encyclicals to understand and disagree with the Church's prohibition on abortion.
There is within the Church, but to the average outsider, and colloquially in English nun is used for all. As well as plain-clothes nun for those not in habit. I don't really care what you call brothers, though they probably do.
You weren't originally talking about social teachings, you were talking about the child sex abuse scandal and criticizing "newspapers" as if there was another source of THAT information. Because, you see, the newspapers print what the Church says, as well as what the victims say. Have your read the Ryan Report? The John Jay report? The Murphy report? Seen the findings? Do you have to have read them to have a discussion about child sexual abuse within the Church?
