The article reports on the decision of the Vatican in Italy to suspend Monsignor Tommaso Stenico after TV network La7 ran video of him cruising a man and asserting that gay sex was not sinful. On October 1, 2007, La7 ran a program which featured a gay man who made contact with priests on gay Web sites and secretly filmed his meet ups with different prelates. According to Stenico, he was a victim and was just trolling chat rooms and meeting up with gay men as psychological research to better understand the issue.
