Bishop Panned for Controversy Over Newman Center | The Download

Media cast bishop as conservative cracking down on liberal priests.

In this episode of The Download, hosts Bradley Eli, Simon Rafe, Christine Niles and Kyle Kopy are joined by reporter Dr. William Mahoney to discuss the media's treatment of Bp. Earl Fernandes of Columbus, Ohio. Local media reports, as well as a handful of op-eds, have cast him as a conservative and questioned his handling of a Newman Center. The controversy happened about a year ago, but critics continue blasting the prelate, falsely accusing him of lying about his treatment of the Paulist Fathers. Bishop Fernandes has said he wants the Newman Center more focused on campus ministry and evangelization. The hosts go on to discuss broader issues in the Church involving weak bishops, a broken system of priestly formation and a lack of accountability.
