He made bad appointments, but if Rome hadn’t collapsed, he wouldn’t have either. I don’t know if you ever lived in NY or knew anybody who was there during his time, but I’m speaking from my experience. And I think it’s calumny to accuse him of intentionally being involved in any of this.

Back in 1942 Spellman repeatedly sent the archdiocesan limousine to pick up a male dancer (whom he was “seeing” in those days) from the stage door of a Broadway musical, One Touch of Venus. Through a close friend in the show, Lavina Nielson, I met numerous members of the cast including the young dancer, for whom he had a pressing question: Wasn’t the Archbishop afraid news of their relationship might spread and damage his reputation? (It seemed to me that everybody in the cast already knew of Spellman, the dancer, and the limousine; some were astonished and others offended by it.) The dancer seemed somewhat intrigued himself by the question; in any case, he eventually came back with Spellman’s answer: “I asked him your question and he only said, ‘Who would ever believe that?’” 174 C.

Livius, the above book I quoted is available for free on the Kindle app, which itself is also free. I recommend you peruse it. There's much more damning evidence on Spellman in it.
