| Summary: | The appointment of Myron C. Taylor as Franklin Delano Roosevelt's personal representative to Pius XII created a great deal of anger among a number of Protestant denominations in the United States. The national press reported the various conferences and assemblies which put forward resolutions asking the President to recall Taylor from the Holy See. This essay investigates the reporting of these protests, making note of the change of rhetoric used to oppose United States-Vatican relations from blatant anti-Catholicism to the language of the separation of church and state. |
