February 17, 2010 - The Washington Times reported today that the Catholic Information Center in Washington DC, which is run by Opus Dei, was hosting a book signing ceremony for former ABC reporter and pro-abortion Catholic, Cokie Roberts. It appears that this event has been cancelled as the following email was just received:

To the Patrons and friends of the Catholic Information Center:

In inviting Steve and Cokie Roberts to the CIC to present their book, From this Day Forward, we were unaware that some of the positions held by Ms. Cokie Roberts are inimical to the Catholic Faith and the support of our Holy Father that we hold very dear at the Catholic Information Center. We are grateful for those of you who have taken the time to express your concern and inform us. Our apologies go out especially to all who may have been troubled by the scheduling of this event and the confusion it may have occasioned. The event has been cancelled.



The email was signed by Father Arne A. Panula, who runs the center.
