Well, Chris Wallace has called Cardinal Ratzinger the Vatican's "enforcer," and the priest who is with him said that that is not what he does and the word shouldn't be used, as it carries with it a stigma that is unfair, particularly concerning the difficult job Cardinal Ratzinger has had over the last 20 years.

I think I will go back to EWTN. I don't think Wallace is the propert person to cover this, as he obviously is going to cover it as a political event.

Any one in the MSM will treat it as a political election. There isn't much you can say or do about it. FOX News seems to be pretty good about letting this Mass play out on its own without a bunch of chatter on top, unlike CNN which seems to have a bunch of commentary on top of the Mass.

Agreed.
Wallace is horrible, and EWTN translates.

For me, this is television at its best.
Allowing us a front row seat.
Spectacular.
