I can count on true Catholic reporting from this newspaper December 10, 2008 I ordered this magazine the first time from my niece as a fundraiser. There isn't much quality offered in the magazines and newspapers from most of those school fundraisers, and knowing this I looked for something labeled "Catholic" to buy. I was not expecting much from the newspaper even though it had "Catholic" in its title since the term "Catholic" is used so loosely these days. I was shocked to find that this newspaper I stumbled across actually represented the true teachings of the Catholic church! How refreshing!
I urge to to order this newspaper! I look forward to reading it every week and use it as a reward to myself to read when I've met the goals of the day or the week. I can't get enough! It's a beautiful paper!

Superb complete and balanced Catholic news. The depth and the quality of writing really stand out.
Just what you are looking for April 24, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This newspaper has everything that a busy Catholic mom is looking for. It gives news blips from around the world, great general interest articles, sections on the culture of life, movie reviews, parenting and marriage advice and calendars for events in your region. It has everything that would normally take three newspapers worth of reading to find. Mine comes every Saturday morning, and is in the Church hall being recycled to other Catholics by Sunday morning. It is run by the LCs (which I think are an awesome order) but even what they report about themselves is unbiased and very factual in every way!
The Rest of the Story March 2, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
John Paul II was a name that made news, even to the point of Time-Life printing a special book about him (which was quite good). He was so popular that you'd think he was a US president so often did the news misquote him. The news, assuming that the millions of Catholics don't listen to the pope anyway, instead found that they don't give a fig what the news says about him. What they do care about is what the pope actually says (if only to have the chance to disagree), and are naturally dismayed when the paper is filled with reams of commentary on speeches they don't actually reprint.
Well, where can you read what John Paul II or his successor, Bendict actually said? Right here. Believe it or not, they even reprint a Bible study by the Pope (what? Catholics read the Bible?) Not to mention all the rest of the story about the mysterious Vatican which makes such good suspense fiction in best-selling novels and is so given unto rumour, intrigue and conspiracy theories.
Other than that, Protestants will be surprised to find they get a fair shake in this paper (unlike Catholics in many Protestant organs), which also has the best coverage of what it calls the Culture of Life. Not to mention lively writing by lively converts. Evangelicals and Catholics are increasingly finding they have a lot in common. Add to that list The National Catholic Register.
It's the Regnum Christi/Legion of Christ paper August 15, 2004 17 out of 46 found this review helpful
Although this info is not made obvious, this newspaper is published by RC/Legion of Christ, an organizaton which is controversial among Catholics for various reasons. If you're looking for a general news Catholic publication, I suggest you keep looking.
