Big Summer News

It doesn’t
look like the news will slow down this summer. Judge Sonia Sotomayor has been
nominated as a new Supreme Court justice. Miguel Díaz of St. John’s University
and the College of Saint Benedict in Collegeville, Minn., has been nominated to
be Vatican ambassador.
Of the two positions, the Supreme
Court justice is by far the more important, and so receives the bulk of the
coverage in this issue.
But the ambassadorship is
significant, too. The most recent Holy See ambassador was Mary Ann Glendon. The
questions swirling around L’Oss-ervatore Romano
remind us that Rome and Washington do not
always speak the same language. Look to the Register to follow important
developments in both.
