RORATE CÆLI: Wall Street Journal: “The Power of the Latin Mass”

The Wall Street Journal’s Rome reporter, Francis X. Rocca, published a piece online today that will run in Saturday’s paper, looking at what the traditional Latin Mass means to those who attend it. It is an honest, opinion-free report of Catholics, young and old, who prefer the TLM.  Rocca has consistently written articles for the WSJ that feature a diversity of views and people — the opposite of other mainstream media, such as the New York Times or Reuters, which rely on the same tired sources.  Seriously, look at most other mainstream news articles on Catholic issues and you will likely find John Carr, Thomas Reese, John Gehring, Massimo Faggioli or James Martin in just about every article.  Mainstream media are notorious for either an obvious slant or one-sided perspective from this small group of men who feed lazy reporters by completing their preconstructed narrative concerning traditional Catholics.
