Well, Mother A ran afoul of Mahony and that caused some friction with her own bishop back in the day when Mahony and his ilk were riding higher and prouder than they are now.

Not sure who Fr. Z's bishop is, but I think he's based in Rome so he doesn't have to contend with the goofier American heterodox bishops, who at any rate have far less power than when Mother A locked horns with them.

Times have changed but you’re right also, Fr Z is based in Rome so liberal leaning Archbishop Flynn of Minneapolis had little control over him. I had forgotten that. Now Minneapolis has a more outspoken orthodox bishop anyway.
