Bill Donohue comments on the Feb. 13th cover story in Rolling Stone: The lengthy piece by Mark Binelli on Pope Francis is respectful, though hardly without flaws.

Bill Donohue comments on a video posted two days ago on YouTube by Sarah Silverman: Sarah Silverman is a champion of abortion rights, but that hardly makes her a bigot.
