Photographer Canned In Scalia Flap
BOSTON, March 31, 2006(CBS/AP) A freelance photographer who snapped a photo of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia making a controversial gesture inside a Catholic cathedral has been canned by the Archdiocese of Boston, the Boston Herald reports.

The newspaper has been involved in a war of words with Scalia over the meaning of a gesture he made in response to question from a Herald reporter.

The Herald said the justice made "an obscene gesture, flicking his hand under his chin" in response to a question about whether lawyers might question his impartiality in matters of church and state. The incident occurred after he attended Mass at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross.

Scalia fired off an angry letter to the Herald accused the newspaper's staff of watching "too many episodes of the Sopranos" for interpreting a hand gesture he made at a cathedral as obscene. ..."

Geez Loueeze. This is what Scalia is up to?

OMG.

Meanwhile, it's costing these same people $1 billion for sexual abuse claims.

OMG.

What a mess.
