Disgraceful: Piers Morgan and Soledad O’Brien, Pope Truthers

http://twitter.com/#!/piersmorgan/status/300939166101950465

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?

— Soledad O’Brien (@Soledad_OBrien) February 11, 2013

But, she’s just “asking questions,” you see.

@shaunking I hear ya–i was just curious.

— Soledad O’Brien (@Soledad_OBrien) February 11, 2013

“@charterskim: @noltenc @soledad_obrien That woman is vile.”/no, but it’s my job to ask why.

— Soledad O’Brien (@Soledad_OBrien) 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

— Bonk (@BonkPolitics) February 11, 2013

Bingo! Also, you know, she’s cuckoo.

And once again, Twitter was prescient.

$10 say by noon today, trad. media outlets will be asking if now is the time for the Church to consider a lady or pro-abortion Pope.

— T. Becket Adams (@BecketAdams) February 11, 2013

Close!

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

— Soledad O’Brien (@Soledad_OBrien) February 11, 2013

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

Bravo To @noltenc who gets blocked by CNN’s @soledad_obrien as she Uses Resignation News to Trash Pope breitbart.com/Big-Journalism… #disrespectful

Irrelevant Soledad O’Brien @soledad_obrien quick to trash the #Pope & the Catholic church. Nice. #NoClass

— Jessica (@Miami_Jess) February 11, 2013

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.

Here we go. RT @piersmorgan: As a Catholic, I’m not buying this. Popes don’t just quit because they’re tired. What’s going on here??

— Ben Howe (@BenHowe) February 11, 2013

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!

Now @piersmorgan is perpetuating theories that the pope was coerced into leaving.Oh boy…

— Bill O’Keefe (@DefendWallSt) February 11, 2013

In other news, I think @piersmorgan is the first Pope Truther: bit.ly/12FVWb2 #Popers #PoperPiers

I’ll await your contrived Pope photos.‏MT @piersmorganAs a Catholic, I’m not buying this. Popes don’t just quit because they’re tired.

— IWantMyCountryBack (@BeverlyHobbit) February 11, 2013

They’re saying the pope is resigning for health reasons @piersmorgan. Maybe there’s another reason? An ALIEN REASON? twitter.com/BenHowe/status…

— Ben Howe (@BenHowe) February 11, 2013

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

— El SOOPer!! (@SooperMexican) February 11, 2013

Mistrust in the Pope is always ‘Catholic’ RT @piersmorgan: As a Catholic, I’m not buying this. Popes don’t just quit because they’re tired.

— El SOOPer!! (@SooperMexican) February 11, 2013

@soopermexican @piersmorgan – suspicious about an old pope, incurious about #Benghazi.#LiberalPriorities

— Stephen Rex (@Therexreport) February 11, 2013

.@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.

— Kensington (@NYKensington) February 11, 2013

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

— Chris Crawford (@ChrisCrawfordnh) February 11, 2013

Some career advice.

Yes. So can cable news hosts, btw RT @piersmorganPopes 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.

— Charlie Shield (@CharlieShield) February 11, 2013

Never change, Twitter.
