Last week, the first major interview with Pope Francis was released to the world via a number of Jesuit journals; you can read the interview for yourself at America Magazine. As usually happens, major media outlets reported on the interview, often putting their own spin on it (the New York Times provides an example of this type of coverage here).

This morning, Frank Beckmann of Detroit, Michigan’s WJR Radiocalled upon Acton President Rev. Robert A. Sirico to discuss what the popereally said, and how Pope Francis’ thinking will shape how the Catholic Church addresses the big issues of our time.
