The magazine is America and they have two article posted yesterday which should be accessible without any sort of paywall. I posted about McCarrick on June 23rd. The Scandal of Cardinal McCarrick
Here are the America articles - the first offers a commentary on a NY Times article from yesterday. It takes about five minutes to read.
N.Y. Times talks to men who received settlements after alleged abuse by Cardinal McCarrick
