More wisdom from Andre Frossard

To combat evil . . . is to fight with love for all men, including those who are less good. It is to put goodness in relief, so as to make it more attractive, rather than to propagate evil by describing it. When the occasion presents itself to call the attention of society, or of authority, to some evil, it must be done with love for the person to blame, and with delicacy. Do not exaggerate; do not go into detail about the evil any more than is necessary to remedy it.

—ANDRE FROSSARD quoting Saint Maximilian Kolbe
from Forget Not Love: The Passion of Maximilian Kolbe
