HAS THE “WHERE PETER IS” BLOG, AKA, “WHERE POPE FRANCIS WAS” APOLOGIZED TO THE NEW PREFECT FOR THE DICASTERY OF COMMUNICATIONS FOR BEING SO NEGATIVE AND CONTRARY TOWARDS EWTN? LET US PRAY THEY WILL REPENT!

 The Pope also took the opportunity to formally introduce the new Prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, the former EWTN chief executive, Maria Montserrat “Montse” Alvarado, someone “that many of you already know.” She had “joined the Vatican team of the Holy See” on November 1 to take on “this challenging role as Prefect of Communications,” succeeding Paolo Ruffini, “who has completed his term of service.” He praised her “wonderful experience,” “creativity,” “life and liveliness,” saying she would accompany them on the visit and help the Vatican and the Pope “in the very important dimension of communication.”

But the Pope Francis era “Where Peter Is” was quite negative about EWTN. I’m glad we have a “Where Peter Is” in Pope Leo that appreciates EWTN and its chief executive officer no the Prefect for the Dicastery of Communication.

An AI summary of Where Peter Is, Aka, Where Pope Francis Was attitude toward Pope Leo’s pick:

The blog Where Peter Is has frequently criticized the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN), describing it as a voice of opposition to Pope Francis and accusing it of undermining papal authority. [1, 2]

Key criticisms and themes published on the site regarding EWTN include:

Opposition to the Pope: Contributors have characterized EWTN as "the voice of opposition to the pope," arguing that the network and programs like The World Over (hosted by Raymond Arroyo) regularly align with right-wing political causes and Republican party positions over teachings or guidance from the Church and Pope Francis. [1]
Ignoring or "Screening Out" Papal Teachings: The blog has accused EWTN of "screening out the papacy" when papal statements or initiatives challenge the network's preferred political or ideological narratives—such as ignoring or giving minimal coverage to major papal documents and books like Let Us Dream. [1]
Fostering Division and "Post-Truth" Media: Articles on the site have accused EWTN of engaging in "media pathologies," twisting facts to suit ideological prejudices, enabling anti-Francis campaigns (such as Archbishop Viganò's 2018 allegations), and poisoning dialogue and communication within the Catholic Church. [1]
Stewardship of Catholic Media: While commenting on broader Catholic media responsibilities, the blog maintains its stance of defending the integrity of Church tradition and critiquing what its writers view as disloyalty or defamation from platforms operating under the Catholic umbrella. [1]
