Perhaps he was thanking Zeus instead

While the other papers in the city were praising Lynne Abraham's report bashing the Catholic church released last year, the city's contrarian broadsheet, the Evening Bulletin, bashed the report, since it didn't result in convictions, &c.

So I think it's safe to say the people who work there are very Catholic-friendly, and not just because of said op-ed back in September. There aren't paintings of the Virgin Mary on the walls, but a lot of staff members are Catholic. (This, I know during my time there, when I was one of said Catholic staffers.)

Anyway, in the interest of unintentional newspaper comedy, check out this quote from Neumann-Goretti hoops coach Carl Arrigale in yesterday's recap of the weekend Catholic League boys' basketball championship:

I think that's supposed to be a capital 'G.'

Sept. 23: Read no evil, see no evil (please note, this Inky headline was later proved to be, uh, not true)
