Vatican Hires Fox News Correspondent

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: The Vatican has hired a Fox News correspondent to help improve its communications strategy in the wake of the Vatileaks scandal.

Greg Burke, 52, who is a member of the conservative Opus Dei movement, will leave Fox to become the senior communications adviser in the Vatican's secretariat of state.

"I'm a bit nervous but very excited. Let's just say it's a challenge," Mr Burke said.

He defined his job, which he said he had been offered twice before, as being along the lines of the White House senior communications adviser: "You're shaping the message, you're moulding the message, and you're trying to make sure everyone remains on-message. And that's tough." » | Source: AP | Sunday, June 24, 2012
