I always enjoy this type of analysis. It shows how non-Catholic sources perceive Church messaging.
My story today in @NCRonline: A look at how local and major metro newspapers, as well as leading magazines like The New Yorker, are covering and opining on the Synod of Bishops on Synodality for readers who may not normally follow Catholic media. https://t.co/tXLQTdXgPW
