Does the Vatican Newspaper Need A New Editor?

Deal Hudson seems to think so. See L'Osservatore Romano Needs a New Editor

It is a pretty good read. It also mentioned an non Obama related incident relating to the issue of Brain Death that was the subject of an article that caused all sort of misunderstandings.

In Italy the public and media are savvy enough to know how much weight to give various opinion pieces that occur not only in L'Osservatore Romano but other important Church publications.

However that helps little here in the United States and our soundbite press. More liberal Catholic, who also know better, at certain publication will run with this and make even more false and misleading claims. Hopefully someone in the Vatican will realize the false perceptions that are given outside Italy.
