I am new here, and a new fader. Therefore I have been shielded within the congregation from the recent media coverage over whatever it is. Does anyone have links?
What was the incident in November?

NOT THE COURT DEFEAT?

First came the NBC Nightly News spot on big payouts by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society to settle abuse cases in California, then the media outlet for Jehovah's Witnesses, www.jw-media.org, hosted a supposed exculpatory video wherein a Doctor specializing in abuse victimization explained that pedophilia was virtually unknown 18 to 20 years ago in that field.
The it came out that the "Doctor" was NOT a Doctor but, instead, was a licensed social worker. She had given the interview more than 10 years ago and was speaking specifically about adolescent abusers preying on same age or younger children, NOT about adult abusers as the WTS clip editing made it appear.
I think that is probably what you were asking about.

Here's a link to the NBC News report as saved on YouTube for posterity:

Here's the NBC story: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21917798
Here's Fatfreek's awesome job uncovering the "Dr." coverup from the JW-Media.org website: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/148574/1.ashx
And I freaked out on the "Keep on the Watch!" campaign cancellation (my very first 'topic', now up to 4 pages, I'm so proud, yet humble): http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/147814/1.ashx
...and most everyone in the congregations have been shielded from this information as well. You might try printing out the NBC story and asking them...

This is going to make it harder for them to recruit anyone out in field circus. People are informed about the problem, and will bring up the issue. Meanwhile, the witlesses are not informed, and they won't know what the householders are talking about. Then the Tower is going to have Marfans syndrome when no one is starting Bible (???) studies out in the field. And they are boasting about how they equip people so well for field circus?
