The Sisters of the Gospel of Life blog reports on some welcome publicity:Buggy appeal in the news. The appeal, featured here (Send stuff to Sisters of the Gospel of Life) has made the front page of one of our Catholic newspapers. The story is a bit confused but hey! so long as the Sisters get sent lots of stuff for the mothers they are helping, that's fine by me. Once again, if you have some leeway on that plastic thing in your wallet, go over to Amazon and send the Sisters some baby things. Delivery address:

Ah, bless me Fr.Tim, but we journalists are not infallabble or even perfict.
Still, Sr Roseann deserves every bit of publicity she can get. She's one of the holiest people I know, as well as one of the best media people for the Catholic Church in the UK.
I sent the same story to the secular press but, surprise surprise, there was no interest. Well, why would they want a positive, upbeat story on a Catholic pro-life group? That's not news!

No worries, James, you got in the important thing which was publicity for the Sisters. I get quite enough publicity as it is with the Pope drinking Fanta etc. I shouldn't have made any negative comment. Thank you for giving the story some extra publicity.
You are absolutely right about the news values of the secular press.
