Francis, “Where There Is Ambiguity, Let Us Bring Clarity”

Pope Francis released on January 24 his message for World Day of Social Communications condemning “fake news” while advocating for a "journalism of peace". He calls “fake news” the devil’s work but doesn’t tackle the problem of discrediting of real news.

Francis admits that a “slight distortion of the truth can have dangerous effects" which unwittingly may be a reference to Amoris Laetita.

A concluding prayer is of the same tenor, “Where there is ambiguity, let us bring clarity”.
