Or it's mass hysteria sweeping through the trad-o-sphere. Take a look at this screwball screenshot of a so-called Catholic news-aggregate. Fake news bites - to be sure. The editor is a click bait specialist. (Links to the stories have been removed.)

I read that website daily, and sadly, the articles that are linked are not fake news. They are true. I know that for a lot of people who have their head in the sand and refuse to acknowledge just how bad things are it may seem like these things MUST be fake news. But they aren't. They are real. Thus the sad, sad, sad, situation in the Church right now.
ReplyDeleteThe editorializing the headers for the link is what makes it fake news - going to the particular sites linked to is just a crap shoot. Any site that links to Ann Barnhardt as a serious pundit is nothing but a tabloid - Canon212 is as bad as Novus Ordo Watch. They feed off the 'sad situation' in the Church right now and they exploit it.
DeleteAgreed. Canon 212 are not trying to make the situation better; instead, they are fanning the flames, encouraging all sorts of half-truths and lies to circulate wildly, and playing to the gallery in the hope of generating more clicks. They are a breakaway faction from the old "Pew Sitter" news aggregator site. They deserve to be taken as seriously as The Advocate and The Huffington Post, if not less.
DeleteI guess I don't get it. I follow the links and they lead to real news stories that reveal the truth about the situation in the world and the Church. I find it to be a very helpful website - they are doing the work of prophetically proclaiming the truth to a Church that doesn't want to hear that something is very, very wrong.
