Kilcummin parishioners in dispute with bishop

This week's 'Kerry's Eye' carries a story about a disagreement between the Bishop of Kerry and the people of Kilcummin parish.

The dispute is the main story on page one and the full story appears on page 20.

The headline runs: 'You must respect my decision to remove priest' with the sub heading 'Be Christians and have respect'.

What would Pope Francis have to say about this language and this style of leadership that would allow a story such as this to run in a regional newspaper?
