I live in California and follow the news as closely as most people. NCR is the only source I've found for reporting on this meeting.  So, good for NCR, but it would have been nice to have prior notice of the meeting in both religious and secular media. There's an old saying in Italian that I'll translate as "If you network among the disenfranchised, you get good feelings and the bill." (It sounds better in Italian....) I think the Church will effectively resist the forces of dehumanization when it learns how to use the media more effectively.
