We have other Sacraments that bolster the Faith as you mature. We have volumes of information, we have a Pope and a Magisterium. Baptism is not magic. It it not the only thing we have. People who fall away are looking for an easy way out. They think that if they bury their heads in the sand the truth will go away.

I agree with what you say but my point about infant baptism was that for the person baptized as an infant yet who fell prey to liberalism, they will retain their Catholic self identity.
For members of the news media, the Catholic church is large enough that statements made by Catholic leadership, especially the Pope is newsworthy. As media members compare statements made by the church with their own wayward lives, their Catholic self-identity will result in internal tension. Rather than them changing to be in-line with Church teaching, they want the church to change to be in-line with their own liberal belief system.
