The story so far
Everything you need before watchingRobby corners lawyer Eric MacLeish in a parking lot after the assistant said he was fully booked. MacLeish tries to walk away. The reporters hit him with a number: allegations against as many as eighty-seven priests in Boston. Then Robby lays down two stories: one about degenerate clergy, one about lawyers turning child abuse into a cottage industry. Pick one; they will write one of them. MacLeish fires back that he already sent the Globe a list years ago, and the paper buried it.
