Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the shenanigans of the World Cup: Sports was one of the last bastions of political neutrality, which explains its longstanding appeal, if not charm. People of every political persuasion would put their politics aside and join hands in communion, rooting for the home team. No more. Division and polarization [...]
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on Trevor Noah: December 8 is Trevor Noah’s last episode of “The Daily Show.” The general consensus seems to be that he did a pretty good job during his years on the Comedy Central show. That is of little interest to the Catholic League. What matters to us is the [...]
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on Christie’s latest embrace of “Piss Christ”: Now that we are at the beginning of the Christmas season, it is only fitting that the rich and powerful flex their bigoted muscles by attacking Christian sensibilities.

Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the new Disney head: Bob Chapek, who was fired as the Disney CEO, certainly made enemies in and out of Disney. But he is not entirely to blame. Much of that goes to his predecessor, and now successor, Bob Iger. Few outside of Disney even heard of Chapek until [...]
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the shakeup at Disney: “Bob [Chapek] is the right leader at the right time for The Walt Disney Company, and the Board has full confidence in him and his leadership team.” That’s what Susan Arnold, chairman of the board, said in June when Chapek was unanimously elected to a [...]
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on remarks made by Archbishop Timothy Broglio that have drawn criticism: Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who heads the Archdiocese for the Military Services, and was just elected president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, spoke at a press conference during the bishops’ conference in Baltimore.
