He is trying to sensationalized the headline.

No, I do not agree with your assessment. Voris has steadfastly defended this Pope and criticized anyone who criticized this Pope.

He had his eyes opened this week, I think, and he was shocked by the forthright and blunt words of Cardinal Burke.

The title reflects the reality at the Vatican, whether we like it or acknowledge it or not.

As Steve Jalsevac says today in this article, Robert Royal’s synod call to vigilance for the next year

The time for naiveté and overly pious responses to harsh realities that have now been exposed is over.

I sat with Steve at lunch one day this week, and I think he and everyone who had reporters on the inside of this Synod, or who was there or talked to orthodox bishops and cardinals there, is shocked by what transpired. None of us know what to say or how to say it as nothing quite like what has transpired over the last two years has ever happened before in the history of the Church.

He changed the Cardinal words.Hello,Does Michael think he is that important.
“Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura[edit]
Styles of
Raymond Leo Burke

Reference style His Eminence
Spoken style Your Eminence
Informal style Cardinal
On June 27, 2008, Pope Benedict XVI appointed Burke Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura.[23] The Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura exercises final appellate jurisdiction for conflicts between two or more Vatican congregations and appeals of administrative decisions by diocesan bishops and Vatican congregations. Burke was the first non-European named to head the tribunal and became the second-highest ranking American prelate at the Vatican after Cardinal William Levada, the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.”
