I’ve already blogged about Matt Malone’s article on the upcoming U.K. elections, but allow me to plug our podcast on the same subject. Matt helped coordinate America‘s coverage of the U.S. elections in 2008, so his take on the elections in Britain are particularly interesting. The British media, for one, has taken several lessons from U.S. campaign coverage, and not always to good effect.

Listen to my conversation with Matt Malone, S.J.

Fr. Jim Martin is also online this week with a video commentary on how the sacrament of penance can help guide the church through the sexual abuse crisis.

Our videos are also posted on America‘s Facebook page, so you haven’t done so already, become a fan.
