Vatican Employee Caught Messing With Wikipedia Entry of @TaylorRMarshall

Shades of Orwell's 1984!

From Fr Z's Blog
 
Here is something amusing.

Here is something not amusing at all.

First, do you remember the dust up over the doctored letter of Benedict XVI when he declined to review books about the theology of Francis?  A guy in the comms office edited to make it say something it didn’t say.   He lost his job, but they created a new one for him and slide him into it.

Now there’s this.


Some of you might not get exactly what’s going on here.

Taylor Marshall is an outspoken critic of Francis and those around him.  Recently he supported the men who threw the pagan demon statues into the Tiber.

Suddenly Marshall’s Wikipedia entry changes.

By the rules, you are not supposed to change your own entry, but other people who have access can… and they do!

Someone went into Marshall’s wikipedia entry and planted bad stuff.  (That has happened to me, by the way; someone dedicated to the ordination of women planted insinuations and right now there is other tendentious stuff about – you guessed it – a certain Jesuit … but I digress.)

The thing is, you can see the history of the changes and you can see who made them.  If you know what you are doing, you can dig past the initial information and really see some interesting things.

In this case, someone drilled in and found that the person who put the bad stuff on Marshall’s page was working from the IP address of the Vatican’s Office of Telecommunications.

So, someone who works for the Vatican screwed with Taylor Marshall’s Wiki entry in an unfavorable way.

Incompetent.

Ooops… sorry, not incompetent.  Didn’t mean that.  I meant

accompaniment!

That’s it.  This is new kind of “accompaniment” being offered by the Vatican to Taylor Marshall.

¡Hagan lío!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
