Browne in praise of Francis but with some inaccuracies

Vincent Browne in his Irish Times column yesterday talks of Pope Francis as being an honest, clear and welcome voice of decency, something that is welcome.

However in the piece Browne also says that Pope Francis reiterated a rebuke to the US Religious, previously issued by his predecessor Benedict XVI: the sisters were tinged with feminist influences, focused on ending social and economic injustices and not sufficiently on abortion.

Where did Vincent get this idea? Pope Francis said something very different than this. Indeed, he told the US sisters not to bother about the most recent reports issued by Roman officials.

A better sense of accuracy would be helpful.
