The San Francisco Chronicle carried prominent stories on Thursday and Friday, April 4 and 5, including reference to an April 3 statement from the archdiocese. There are quotes from a meeting that that occurred on March 7, nearly a month ago. Is it too much to ask that our official Archdiocesan newspaper, Catholic San Francisco, would provide some news in the April 4 edition to explain the closure of Star of the Sea school and whatever it is that is going on in that parish?
Editor’s note: Through catholic-sf.org and our Facebook news feed, we published two prominent stories, one last Thursday, the other Friday. Our first story was out ahead of the Chronicle’s. The news broke as our latest print issue (April 4, and it went to press April 1) was out and two weeks from the next one. Had it occurred on our deadline, we would have featured it prominently, but print had to wait until the current issue. You can access our latest at https://catholic-sf.org/san-francisco. We publish a lot on the web before the paper, or in addition to it, and putting “Catholic San Francisco” into Google News search will retrieve many of our items almost as soon as they go up. We are a registered news source on Google, no different than the Chronicle. We post news of high interest on our Facebook feed as well.
