There's two EWTNs: the first is the channel that shows masses for shut-ins and daily rosaries (along with Bishop Sheen reruns). The second is the news service, which is to the right of OAN and Newsmax. Raymond Arroyo is their lead "anchor" when he's not chumming up with Laura Ingraham, a friendship that goes back to her conversation to the Church 20 years ago.

 

The Vatican is in a tough spot, it's not like there's enough of an audience to justify the existence of a competing network with a more liberal ideology.

 

It always had been a euphemism for the right-wing. CBN, TBN, PTL and even individual televangelists have had those beliefs for practically forever.

Don't forget Daystar.

Does the TV version of EWTN still air Mother Angelica's reruns?  EWTN was her mission as a nun and was an extension of her creating a monastery in the South after experiencing a miracle of her own healing from a devastating injury.

 

Her original TV efforts were through WBMG (now WIAT) but she decided to start forming EWTN after she objected to CBS's content at the time.

 

As tormented as the Catholic Church has been throughout its history, this is probably the only religious TV channel purely devoted to faith.

Then air it on cable... oh right... Cable is dying as we speak.

 

Merit Street is complaining that TBN didn't help it get on cable enough.
