This blogger had the opportunity to read the current number of the international English speaking edition of the North Korean State newspaper.
It is clearly a one-sided vehicle of State propaganda.
Reading it it is clear to see how the contributors write on how perfect everything is in North Korea.
Any oberserver of right-wing Catholic Church media is forced to see similarities with the North Korean newspaper.
The lack of any room for outside opinion, the absence of any sign of nuance, the 'absolute truth' of so many magazines, blogs, newspaper and newssheets is greatly worrying.
Sadly, it looks if such a trend is in the ascendancy in the Catholic Church at present.
Where are the wise theologians and wise men and women in the church, why stay so silent?
What is happening is alarming and indeed profoundly sad.
