The pope commissions the report, then gets blackmailed with it? By who? Does the report find that this gay conspiracy has been blackmailing the pope in the past? If so, then why the fuck would the pope have commissioned the investigation and report?
Is the pope gay? Again, if this is the case, he'd be asking for a report finding he's gay because...?
These questions could run for a long time. What isn't in question is that Gawker's quality of writing has dropped like a fucking stone.
I'm all for a bait and switch headline, but for God's sake, Mr. Denton... At least request coherence. This story could have been distilled to, "Gays are in the Vatican. Yes, of course, you knew that. Everyone on Earth knew that. But there are lots of them. Maybe more than you think. And they had something to do with the pope resigning. We're not sure what, but it might be something. Or it might not be. Either way, we thought you'd like to see the following formula in narrative form:
Pope + Report that may or may not exist + Gays in the Church + ????? = Forced resignation."
