1. Brooklyn is a separate diocese covering Brooklyn and Queens. Its recent former bishops are Francis Mugavero and Thomas Daily (who arrived from Law's Boston). The present bishop is a big improvent. I forget the name but I believe that he is a youngish Italian bishop previously serving Camden, NJ.
2. As bishop of Bridgeport, Egan allowed Tridentine Masses at Bridgeport and at Stamford.
Egan is no star and he has a terrible attitude about criticism and about press coverage of the scandals and what not. He is not a very wise bishop or a very good pastor. Fortunately he will soon be 75.
It's my home diocese.
It is, as I said, a suffragan see of the New York Archdiocese.
As bishop of Bridgeport, Egan allowed Tridentine Masses at Bridgeport and at Stamford.
Correct. As I said, he is indifferent to Latin mass communities as long as they contribute to the support of the diocese. He neither encourages nor discourages their formation, which makes him better on that point than 90% of the US episcopate.
