Trinity Communications Purchases Catholic World News

A Email NewsFlash:
Hello! This message is from Peter Mirus, Vice President of Trinity
Communications, and Phil Lawler, Editor of Catholic World News.

The past month has brought exciting changes to Catholic World News (CWN). Please read about these changes below, and make sure to take advantage of our discount subscription offer!

Catholic World News Purchased

Effective June 1, Trinity Communications has purchased the Catholic World News web site from Domus Enterprises, the company set up by Phil Lawler, which established CWN in 1996.

What does this mean for subscribers? It does not mean a change in editorial direction. (In fact, although the change took effect nearly a month ago, we're guessing that most readers haven't noticed!) CWN will continue to provide reliable news, independent analysis, and hard-hitting commentary. What the new ownership does mean is that the best is yet to come.

Trinity Communications and Domus Enterprises have worked together for years. Trinity has provided web-hosting services, programming and design for CWN since its earliest days, and is thoroughly familiar with every aspect of the CWNews.com web site. Now we look forward to serving you by devoting increased manpower to site development and customer support.

In order to ensure that news reporting and commentary matches (and hopefully surpasses) our already excellent standards, Trinity Communications has signed Phil Lawler to a long term contract to continue as editor of the web site.

Together, we hope to begin a new era at CWNews.com. We look forward to making positive, incremental changes to the site over the course of the next few months.

Trinity is completely dedicated to providing you with a quality news service that is truly independent, just as Domus Enterprises has for years.

A Decade of Outstanding Catholic News

Catholic World News is the original English language Catholic online news service, with over a decade of experience since its inception in 1996.

After ten eventful news years, which have seen numerous other entrants to the online Catholic news market, we are still the best source for Catholic news, analysis and commentary that is both faithful to the teachings of the Church and truly independent.

Combine that independence with the years of dedication to reliable and responsible news coverage, and you have the unique recipe that makes Catholic World News so valuable. There's no "spin control" on the CWN site, and there's no gossip; just the sort of straight news and insightful commentary that you can count on.

So in May, when Phil Lawler told CWN readers that Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone would be the next Vatican Secretary of State, you know that he wasn't just passing along the latest rumor. You knew -- almost a full month before the official announcement -- that it was going to happen.
