about this site
Catholic Sensibility is a personal blog by a Catholic layperson with comments and occasional other writings by Catholics and non-Catholics. We make no particular claims to have the completeness of a Roman Catholic expression of Christianity. It contains opinion, interpretation, and personal musings. That’s it. Nothing official or authoritatively connected to the Magisterium.

Integrity
Broadcaster Charissa Thompson getting lots of stick for admitting Wednesday she made things up from the sideline of football games.
The stick is justified, and not just from the quantity of sports broadcast people piling on. I read she tried to walk things back on Friday. But not too successfully.
She’s not the first. Ronald Reagan was a remote baseball announcer in Des Moines Iowa in the 1930s, relaying Chicago Cubs games to baseball fans in the Hawkeye State:
Ronald Reagan on the episode, from his autobiography Where’s the Rest of Me?
Trust is important. I think the careless reporting of events like these without a smidgen of contrition is damaging.
