Pope Francis is dead. And there is no need to sugar-coat his departure with pious platitudes, as the mainstream catholic media will be doing ad nauseam ("a man with a shepherd's heart for the poor," etc.). In fact, I will try to limit my negative comments about this kind of autocanonization, familiar to us from six decades of Novus Ordo funerals. Time will be better spent in prayer and in reading deeper evaluations.

Will the Mainstream Media Change? Is It Even Possible?

Will you miss this Biden cabinet pick?

My friend, Dexter Duggan who writes for The Wanderer and his Substack page, Sunrise Sunset, posted an interesting article about the LA Times. Check it out!

Earthquake-like waves of Trump's win shake up LA Times, too

Here's how the article begins:

Nothing Can Be Believed about the War in Ukraine Coming from Western Media

It's a war of propaganda and nothing in the media can be trusted. "Mainstream media is part of propaganda war... We must be skeptical of absolutely everything." (John Pilger) 

Mainstream Media Liars Are At It Every Minute of Every Day....

Everyone knows the mainstream media are a bunch of liars who don't care about reporting the news, but spinning it. They did it bigtime against President Trump and continue to censor and virtue-signal against Trump supporters. Did the MSM even blink, much less call for the deplatforming of those who encouraged violence against Trump and his supporters and continue to do so? Let's look at just one.

Articles Worth Reading: Combat "Nonsense on Stilts"

If you're sick of reading the #HumptyDumptyMedia, here are several articles for critical thinkers with common sense. Life is too short to waste it on the Post, the NYTimes, and the other politically correct purveyors of fake news.

The Slandering of Cardinal Burke

Defense of Slavery by Muslim Professor at Georgetown

Subjectivism and Amoris Laetitia

Girl Boy Scouts: the White Flag of Surrender

#HumptyDumptyCourt gets it wrong

The Pope's Speech to Congress: What Are His Priorities?

A friend of mine wrote this on his Facebook page after the pope's speech to Congress this morning. 

"About 145 babies were aborted during this speech to congress. I'm not sure how many criminals were put to death during that time but I'm guessing it was quite a bit fewer. Just saying."

It got me thinking. How enlightening would it be to go through the speech with a pen and paper and timer and write down how much time was given to each subject? I only heard one sentence about defending life from beginning to end and very little on the family that couldn't be interpreted as applying to the new definition of family in all its diverse forms. There was a lot more, as my friend points out, on capital punishment and, of course, on social justice whatever you think that means.
