One would expect that a link enabled as "letter Pope Francis wrote to Cardinal Robert Sarah" would actually take one to said letter, not to another NCR article about the letter which is similarly deficient in linking to the original source.  I don't think this too much to ask.
"That is what Pope Francis was affording Sarah, a chance to say that he had been misquoted, or quoted out of context, or that somehow the editors at L'Homme Nouveau had gotten it wrong."  Is MSW suggesting that Francis is giving Sarah the opportunity to lie?  One may dislike Sarah for any number of things and accuse him of being conservative, but I've never heard anyone accuse him of availing himself of any opportunity to lie.
