It's a good thing

Pope advances cause of sainthood for Spanish nuns murdered by communists

"The cause of a German priest and two companions, murdered by National Socialists during WWII, has also been advanced."
Ah, the media!

The causes of individuals martyred by the extreme right are also advanced, but that can't be in the headline because we're all anti-Communist, right? The Right, and the Fascists, may have made some mistakes, but they don't deserve a headline, do they? I mean, that would tar all right-wing individuals with the same brush, while using 'Communist' only tars the left. That's OK, isn't it?
