The US media covered it up, but within the past month a huge pedophilia scandal was exposed in their Football programs. It went to the top, and more than a few top players have come out to say they were abused as children.

Uk media I think you ment to say. Yes more than 3-400 victims come forward so far and about 50 or more abusers accused from the top of my head. Let's hope there is no cover up!

Undoubtedly there will be politicians implicated somehow. They will have all been part of the same groups going to the same parties, and that Dolphin Square place etc. I find it insane that people seem to accept the idea that it's 'historic abuse' as though it happened 'back then' and wasn't it awful, but of course it all stopped all of a sudden in the 90s and we don't have to worry about it anymore. Don't people realise that if it was happening then and it was covered up, and nothing was ever done to address it or stop it, and the people doing it remained powerful, recruiting people they knew and favoured into both the political sphere and in the media, then surely, logically, it follows that if anything, today it will be MORE prevalent, by now probably most of the top people are part of it, in government, the Courts and the media. Why else is the child abuse inquiry going nowhere? Why is there no outrage about it?!

Well, the UK media went with it a little bit at first, but the US media would not touch it at all.
