The blog is a citation. Here is another:

Google is thy friend.

Lousy research by the author you cite.

Arlington is not a suffragan diocese to Washington, where Cardinal McCarrick was archbishop. (McCarrick definitely *is* one of the bad guys.) Despite teh Archdiocese of Washington being directly between Arlington and Baltimore, Arlington belongs to the Archdiocese of Baltimore. When the Washington Archdiocese was created, it was carved out of the Baltimroe Metropolitan, and the Virginia dioceses remained with Baltimore.

Sorry, FRiend, but Abbott does not do his own research or, for that matter, much of his own writing. He merely cites and retales what others say. His article is as trustworthy or untrustworthy as the authorities he quotes.

I have no idea whether Fr. Haley is a martyr or a lunatic. But citing to RenewAmerica is a half-notch, at best, above the National Enquirer. The site exercises zero editorial control.

The dictionary could be your friend.

A "citation" is a link or other directive to a primary source, such as an actual decree of excommunication - instead of thousands of blog postings claiming that such a primary source exists somewhere.
