Vatican axes coverage of Biden meeting with Pope Francis
|
[NYPOST] The Vatican’s press office on Thursday canceled plans to broadcast livestream video of President Joe Biden
 ...... 46th president of the U.S., who gives the term geriatric a bad name. He blames Afghans for losing Afghanistan.......
meeting on Friday with Pope Francis
...Argentine liberation theologist, born Jorge Mario Bergoglio. He was elected pope in 2013. Rather than setting up shop in Avignon, where he belongs, the first Jesuit Pope chose to reside in the Domus Sanctae Marthae guesthouse instead of the papal apartments. He is big on climate change, against consumerism, and in favor of throwing a blanket over homosexual activity (so to speak) within the clergy. He's not real sure about the Resurrection, about Christ's divinity, and a few other things that would have gotten him burned at the stake a few hundred years ago, but he's hot for a certain South American Earth Mother Goddess...
and now will only broadcast the arrival of Biden’s motorcade.
It’s unclear if the White House, already under fire for limiting press access to Biden, requested that the broadcast be curtailed. Spokespeople did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
White House Correspondents’ Association President Steven Portnoy said the organization disagrees with the new plan to give journalists edited footage after the meeting.
"Reporters have been covering the papal audiences of American presidents since Woodrow Wilson sat [with] Benedict [XV] in January 1919," tweeted Portnoy, a news hound for CBS News Radio. "Our fully vaccinated [and] masked pool of news hounds is ready to continue this public service, mindful of its own safety as well as the leaders’, to ensure independent coverage of the first Catholic president in 60 [years] meeting with the head of the Catholic church."
Portnoy added: "The [White House] told us the bilateral meeting would involve Biden [and] Francis discussing substantive matters of global significance ’including ending the COVID-19 pandemic, tackling the climate crisis, and caring for the poor.’ Such an international news event demands independent coverage."
The News Agency that Dare Not be Named reports that the Vatican for years has streamed video of the pope’s meetings with visiting world leaders.
Biden is the second Catholic president and has met with Pope Francis on three previous occasions, though not as president. The visit follows a meeting this month between Francis and House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
(D-Calif.).
The pope, 84, has dismissed a push by more conservative US bishops to deny Communion to Catholic politicians who support legal access to child sacrifice abortion, such as Pelosi and Biden. The US bishops will meet next month to discuss the idea.
Press-access issues plagued Biden’s first foreign trip to Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
in June. US news hounds were abruptly disinvited from covering a meeting between Biden and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
’s authoritarian leader His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than there are in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really most important...
— leaving US news hounds relying on Erdogan’s press office for information. And Biden watched in apparent amusement as Russian President Vladimir Putin
...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
’s security team shoved US news hounds out of an introductory pool spray.
