Sigh. What’s going on here? Oh, you are letting your idiocy show, that’s what. Again. It’s not surprising; Journalists are way out of their depth here.
Lacking papal equivalent of Almanac of American Politics, Twitter journos forced to admit they know fuck all about most things.

RT @abumuqawama: I expect the U.S. media to cover Roman Catholicism about as well as it does the American South.

As Twitchy reported, Pope Benedict XVI is stepping down at the end of the month. To Piers and other Pope Truthers, there must be something nefarious going on. Soledad “Special Snowflake” O’Brien agrees.
"@piersmorgan: As a Catholic, I'm not buying this. Popes don't just quit because they're tired. What's going on here??"/ I agree. Why?

But, she’s just “asking questions,” you see.
@ShaunKing I hear ya–i was just curious.

"@ChartersKim: @NolteNC @soledad_obrien That woman is vile."/ no, but it's my job to ask why.
— Soledad O'Brien (@soledadobrien) February 11, 2013
@Soledad_OBrien @piersmorgan Wow, really? Hinting at conspiracy theories and hidden motives is not the same as asking objective questions.
— Michal Conger (@MichalConger) February 11, 2013
Hey @Soledad_OBrien Why isn't it your job to ask 'why' on Benghazi or Fast & Furious. Maybe because it doesn't fit your narrative? @NolteNC

Bingo! Also, you know, she’s cuckoo.
And once again, Twitter was prescient.

Close!
I wonder who the next pope will be: latin american? African? European?

Soledad then blocked Breitbart’s John Nolte for pointing out her bias today.

Of course: @Soledad_OBrien already asking if "sex scandals" exhausted the Pope.

Was Soledad following the always repugnant Piers Morgan’s lead? He immediately jumped on the Pope Truther bandwagon this morning.

Popes can resign????
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2013
The Queen's a year older than The Pope. Can't see her ever resigning because she's tired. #indefatigability1infallibility0
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) February 11, 2013
The mocking of Piers’ delusional conspiracy theory was swift and delicious. Piers Morgan, the first Pope Truther!

People who have read more out of Dan Brown novels than out of the Bible shouldn't be allowed to comment on Papal resignation -> @PiersMorgan

.@PiersMorgan is a character like Stephen Colbert, right? He's just a parody of Keith Olbermann types, isn't he? There's no way that's real.

@piersmorgan that's one of the dumbest tweets I've ever seen.

Yes. So can cable news hosts, btw RT @piersmorgan
Popes can resign????— Jamie Weinstein (@Jamie_Weinstein) February 11, 2013
Zing! And this Twitter user points out some of the most hurtful news of the day.
Of all the anti-Catholic diatribes and digs I've seen today, the most depressing & hurtful is Piers Morgan, stating that he's Catholic.
