"The corporates are losing and the journalists are winning." Professor Stewart Purvis.
A quote on this evening's BBC Newsnight programme on the BBC/Jimmy Savile debacle.
Anyone who is following the Savile story, especially priests, must be forced to ask who are the 'journalists' and who are the 'corporates' in child sex abuse within the institutional church.
In the church there really has not been a murmur from the 'journalists' and the 'corporates' have had their say.
They may well have won the battle but surely that policy can never win the war.
Nor should it.
Later in that same programme, Jeremy Paxman interviewed Conrad Black recently released from prison.
It certainly will go down as one of the most spectacular interviews ever on Newsnight.
