Early Obit
This news organization wrote an early obituary for Pope Francis, confidently predicting he won’t last another five years and reciting his achievements and failures in his job. One must admire the chutzpah if not the accuracy of the article. The best revenge for the Pope is to outlast the predictions and continue to do his job. There is little a media relations practitioner can do to stop such articles. The reporter has the freedom to speculate, and so he has. It takes patience and serenity to endure and continue on. A leader should put Monday morning quarterbacking in perspective. Anyone can be a critic without the pressures of accomplishing anything.
