Before the Academy Awards started Sunday, “Spotlight” actor Mark Ruffalo, director Tom McCarthy, and co-writer Josh Singer joined with members of SNAP, the Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests, for a protest outside the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in downtown Los Angeles. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the “Spotlight” gang was there to support the survivors’ demand that the names of pedophile priests be released. Ruffalo, nominated for his role in the film, tweeted: “Standing with the survivors of Priest sexual abuse!” The Oscar-nominated “Spotlight” tells the story of the Boston Globe series exposing the many pedophile priests in the Catholic church.
