Synodgate, I would have thought, deserves a little more coverage than that.

You raise an important matter. The danger of selection of news and of censorship within Catholic papers and comment.
I, being a paying contributor to the Catholic Herald, (in spite of its outrageous price!) have an interest in this. So far my eminently reasonable and objective comments have not been blocked in any way. The editor's “must reads” is, I suspect, a clever way of getting round certain restrictions.
This is not so for another Catholic journal where I have had difficulty in commenting although I reserve judgement since it might simply be my unfamiliarity with the form.
The Blogosphere and comment, is not going to go away. Equally, an increasing number of people, will try to suppress it. We must guard against this.
It now seems that this is so in the Vatican with the Fr Rosica attempt to silence Vox Cantaris, and the criminal theft of the the books relating too the Synod on the Family (not reported as you point out), being but the most obvious.
We must continue to support with clear orthodox comment our Faith, and the Bloggers, clerical and lay who defend it. So keep up the good work.
I suspect, closer to home that Fr Fin has been nobbled, but perhaps that's just my suspicious nature.
What I find most disturbing is the now the general inability of the Catholic press to accept that the Catholic world as it has existed, is falling about our heads. The situation is grave.
