Saying Goodbye To The National Catholic Register

by Patrick Archbold

It is with some regret that I must inform you that my employment as a contributing blogger at the National Catholic Register has been terminated.

Yup, they fired me.

I am grateful for the five years I spent as a contributor to the Register, the online presence of which has grown immensely during my tenure and that of the other original group of contributors.  There is a lot to be proud of there.  I stuck with them in hard times even when they were completely broke and it looked like they would blink out of existence, only to be saved at the last minute. Alas and alack, our time together has come to an end. 

There are many things I could say about why this happened and how and maybe one day I will say more.  But for now, suffice it to say that my particular contributions have not been well received over the last year or so and that has lead to increasing tension. READ FULL REPORT HERE

REMNANT COMMENT: By a strange coincidence, Mr. Archbold, we here at The Remnant are in search of an additional columnist. Perhaps you might consider taking a crack at ticking off a few of our readers or maybe even building up some real tension with our editors.  In fact, I challenge you to give that a try!  You up?
