I agree with your point, but a small correction here - it wasn't "kid fucking."

If you look at statistics on the age and gender of the victims, a super-majority of them are teenage boys.  Not girls, not pre-pubescent.  Instead almost all of the victims are sexually able and male.

It was homosexual predation, not pedophilic predation.

The media portrayed it as a pedophile scandal for maximum outrage but also because they were trying to court the homosexual vote at that time, and didn't want to portray the priests as homosexuals.
