Don't tell me--you used the Cliff's Notes for that test on Moby Dick, didn't you?
By the way did you know that the head of the Reuters news service has announced that the word "terrorist" will no longer be allowed in news dispatches? He argues, correctly I think, that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
The point is there is no such thing as "raw news". Everything is filtered; filtered through lenses over which we have no control and of whose motivations we know nothing. And reporting upon Papal statements, teachings, ect is among the most filtered news around....
