Vatican ditches God, gets propaganda help instead
It seems that the Vatican is having a little trouble containing damaging internal information leaked by Ratzinger’s very own butler, who remains under arrest in the little nation of Pedophilistan. Apparently, nobody is believing they’re not a corrupt organization. Imagine that!
In the crisis, what does the Vatican do? Get their all-powerful god to come to their rescue? Don’t be silly. Everyone knows that will never happen. They double down and hire someone who really knows how to solve the problem: a propagandist from one of the world’s greatest propaganda empires: Fox News. Fox News is now famous for their distortions and misinforming their viewers. That’s just what the Vatican needs: more lies, better lies. Lies that someone might actually believe.
Good luck with that, Vatican. You’ll need it.

If your best efforts aren’t working then you call in the experts. That’s all the Vatican did. They need help with their propaganda and who’s better at propaganda than Fox?

I’m sure Fox News is just itching to add “By Divine Appointment” to their tagline.

And a new Fox News jingle, sung by Bill O’Reilly to the tune of “If you knew Susie”…
“If the Pope knew Jesus, like Fox knows Jesus…”

And now abideth faith, fox, fraud, these three; but the greatest of these is fraud.

Used to be the Catholic Church. How the mighty have fallen.

A propagandist from Fox News you say? Well, their story must have been true all along. Time to take up the cause of Catholicism. Grab a bible everyone. Last one to Heaven is a rotten egg.

Ok. Maybe I’m horribly misinformed, but the idea that the Vatican can have someone “arrested” frightens the hell out of me. So, they declared these documents top secret and are now subjecting this guy to their own legal system? There aren’t enough scare quotes to do this paragraph justice.
Will he have a trial, or did they just get a bishop to point at him and exclaim “You dare defy me? Have this man placed in the dungeon!”
