The Roman Catholic bishops of Spain do not like their prime minister. Jose Luis Zapatero, for one reason or another, refuses to acknowledge the bishops' traditional authority within the Spanish nation. In addition, his brand of socialism does not accord with the bishops' own brand of socialism. For this reason, the Spanish Bishops' Conference is doing everything in its power to stir up the Spanish people against Zapatero and to force him out of office for good.
The following article represents the latest attempt by the bishops. Here, a powerful archbishop from Seville calls on Catholic journalists in the country to "share their Christian identity and be witnesses to the truth."
What does this mean? Does the archbishop want the journalists to write more stories on the life of Jesus Christ? Does he want them to comment on biblical themes?
No. As anyone with eyes can see, he wants the journalists to publish articles that confront the Zapatero government and incite the people against it. In military terms, the Spanish bishops are calling for a program of "psy-ops." It is regime change at its most subtle.

Spanish bishop calls on Catholic journalists to witness to truth
.- Archbishop Juan Jose Asenjo of Seville has called on Catholic journalists to share their Christian identity and be witnesses to the truth in their profession.
During a Mass celebrating the patron of journalists, St. Francis de Sales, Bishop Asenjo called on the professionals to be “witnesses of the truth” within their work, and also urged them to remember the poor and the needy.
Addressing Catholic professionals, Bishop Asenjo encouraged them “not to hide faith out of fear,” adding that Catholics have a right to be present in all areas of public life, including the media.
“The Church has much need for you…and she desires to be the friend of the media and of journalists. She doesn’t necessarily want televangelists, but neither should you hide your faith,” he concluded.
