Bill Donohue comments on last night’s edition of \”Entertainment Tonight\” (ET):
 
Pope bashers are coming out of the woodwork, so it is hard to keep up with all of them. But the vile hit piece on the pope that aired on ET is clearly one of the worst.
 
\”The Pope’s Past\” begins with correspondent Brian Ross complaining that many years ago he was slapped on the wrist by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. The occasion for this \”brutality\” was Ross’ decision to badger the cardinal while the would-be pope was walking to a car. Ross said, \”It actually stung.\” He did not say whether he was rushed to the local ER.
