Bp. Finn calls out the National Catholic Reporter

Posted on 24 January 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

The National Catholic Reporter (aka Fishwrap) conspired with others who are openly hostile to the Catholic Church to intimidate His Excellency Most Rev. Robert Finn into silence.
The fact is, the NCR is not a “Catholic” paper or news source. That … Continue reading →
