There is not one of us who can deny that, in our personal life, we have said something either incorrect, imprudent, or which can be misinterpreted, which had consequences and for which we are sorry.
Politicians do this, as the last election cycle has shown.
And people who are representatives of churches can also fall prey to this misfortune of words that can, whether justly or unjustly, be held against them.

Ah, I see. You won't discuss the transcript because the Vatican doctored it. Have I got that right?
Figures.

Did you know that? You're happy to quote him as a journalist of record?
