It is kind of ironic that most on FR don't seem to care whether Hudson goes or stays since he is touted as (one of) the Catholic liasons to the pres. I don't think most Catholics even know (or care) who he is, to tell the truth.

Well, when a private sin is made public and the figure it concerns is a public persona, these things happen, they should happen - although in this case I think NCR should have refrained since the sin seems to have been repented and repaid (losing his career as a professor plus the $$ settlement). I'm sure NCReporter published what they did for a political reason. I am assuming this is a one-time failing on Hudson's part until and if the facts are known.

One more reason to be glad we are not public figures whose past repented sins are fair game to some with axes to grind.

Amy Welborn's blogspot has a lot of ongoing back and forth on this - some attended the event and dispute the newspaper account, some are liberals and some are traditionalists... spans the spectrum of us.
