EWTN: Four Decades of Legitimizing the Usurpers of the Holy See
EWTN News portal (August 15, 2026) reports the forty-fifth anniversary of the Eternal Word Television Network, celebrating its growth from a garage studio into a global media empire reaching 435 million households. The article lauds Mother Angelica’s entrepreneurial zeal, the network’s acquisition of *National Catholic Register* and Catholic News Agency, its coverage of four “pontificates,” and its digital expansion. This triumphalist narrative of institutional success masks the grim reality: EWTN has functioned for nearly half a century as the premier propaganda organ of the conciliar sect, legitimizing the manifest heretics occupying the Vatican and obscuring the vacancy of the Holy See.
