    You’d think they’d lead with the journalists. Guess they think cellphones are more important.

        Your first mistake is writing THIS POPE, when it should’ve been THE POPE. That will get more people interested, because it’s THE pope and not just any regular pope.

              Space and time, but they’re sort of the same thing.

      I wonder if there are a number of people who will always read an article if the pope is mentioned, so if he’s related to a topic even a little bit, he gets to be in the headline.
