Pope Accused of Adding Fake Comments to Holy See’s YouTube Site
VATICAN CITY - Hours after launching a slick You Tube channel in an effort to use technology to reach a younger audience, Pope Benedict XVI came under fire for adding fake comments to the site using made-up names. The comments praised both the site and the Pontiff.Experts say seventy-one of the seventy-four comments posted within two hours of the site’s launch emanated from the Pope’s personal IP address.
One of the fake comments, signed by “Axel,” said: “Bravo! You are the greatest Pope ever! Rah! Rah! Rah! Much better than the Polish one.” Another comment, purportedly posted by “Buffalo, U.S.,” said: “Now, finally, I, a young person of the Faith, will become holy and will start going to Mass each and every Sunday because now, finally, the church is speaking to me, dude.”
Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said the Pope was “very sorry” that he posted the fake comments. “Pope Benedict did not understand” that comments are supposed to be legitimate, Father Lombardi explained. “The Pontiff became so caught up in the fun and mischief of the Internet that he assumed it was commonplace to take on fake identities and enter into a world of pretend.”
