Another problem is that the secular media out of all Catholic publications always quote the NCR as a "Catholic" source, in addition to an interview with Fr. Richard McBrien :)

That's the main problem with publications like the National (anti)Catholic Reporter and groups like Catholics for Free Choice. The media always runs to them as if they were authorities on Catholic issues and people are fooled into thinking that if they've got the word "Catholic" in their name, they must be sanctioned by the Church.

One thing you have to remember about the media is that as a whole, it's very incestuous. Let's face it, NCR and CfFC are media driven. That and reporters are lazy. The people at NCR and CfFC are contacts and they are easier to get a hold of than real groups.

Of course, there's the sales job aspect of it all.
