Catholic Priests Caught on Film Having Homo Sex at Gay Club in Italy
Imagine President Obama owned and operated Newsweek magazine while he was a sitting president.
Sounds far fetch, huh?
Well, Italian Prime Silvio Berlusconi, who himself is no stranger to scandal, owns Panorama, a weekly magazine. It is this publication that is reporting a shocking homosexual sex scandal involving Catholic priests in Italy.
Now you thought the media was rough over here, right?

The Catholic Church in Italy was embroiled in a fresh scandal on Friday when photographs apparently showing homosexual priests attending gay nightclubs and engaging in casual sex were published in a magazine.
Panorama magazine published photographs apparently showing homosexual priests attending gay nightclubs and engaging in casual sex
A journalist from Panorama, a conservative weekly news magazine owned by Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian prime minister, used a hidden camera to film interviews with three gay priests, who introduced the journalist to the gay clubs they apparently frequent, and allowed the journalist to film their sexual encounters with strangers, including one in a church building.
One of the priests, a Frenchman identified only as Paul, celebrated Mass in the morning before driving the two escorts he had hired to attend a party the night before to the airport, Panorama said.
The Catholic Church in Italy, still reeling from the paedophile priest scandal, responded on Friday by ordering homosexual priests who are leading a double life to come out of the closet and leave the priesthood.
In a statement on Friday, the Rome diocese insisted that the vast majority of Rome's 1,300 priests were truthful to their vocations and were "models of morality for all."
The Vatican did not comment on the Panorama investigation, but a senior source said: "This is the usual silly season rubbish to attract readers during the quiet summer months.
"There is no proof that the people involved are from the clergy."
A preview of the article sent out by Panorama said: "By day they are regular priests, complete with dog collar, but at night, it's off with the cassock as they take their place as perfectly integrated members of the Italian capital's gay scene."
