NOTICE ABOUT UPCOMING DOCUMENTARY FROM SNAP
that I received in email:
We want to be sure you know about (and might help spread the word about) the probing movie to be shown on PBS this Tuesday, January 16. We are grateful to the brave survivor and his family who exposed their pain and vulnerability and their courage, strength and compassion. We congratulate the producer/director and those that made this film possible. Please spread the word.
Time is short, but we're hoping you will consider sending this ASAP to:
a) the reporter at your local newspaper who covers television, and/or
b) any journalist who has covered clergy sex abuse, and/or
c) any reporters you know
We hope you'll consider letting your readers know about this important, award-winning documentary.
Thanks.
From today's Wall Street Journal A word about Frontline's "The Hand Of God" by filmmaker Joe Cultrera, airing Tuesday, 9-10:30 p.m. EST, on PBS (check local listings). This story about the filmmaker's brother, sexually molested by a priest in the 1960s, is that rare thing when it comes to works on this theme -- a film informed by passion without histrionics, and a sober and moving family saga.

I have attempted to access the WSJ article, but got a message that it is no longer available.
