Revelation

Award-winning reporter and journalist Sarah Ferguson presents unrivalled insights into the issue of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church in this three-part documentary. This ground-breaking series sheds a light on the criminal brothers and priests of the Church, who for the first time get the opportunity to react in their own words. Two men are interviewed during the special, who accused the convicted Australian Cardinal George Pell of sexually abusing both of them when they were boys while he served the Diocese of Ballarat. Ferguson hosted this special herself when it aired on ABC and soon after the episodes had been aired, police began an official investigation of the allegations discussed in Revelation. Despite the controversy generated by the show and it coinciding with Pell's trial, the ABC stated that “it has and will continue to report accurately and without fear or fervour on stories that are in the public interest, including this one.”
