The correspondent, Greg Burke, 52, who has covered the Vatican for Fox since 2001, will leave the network to help improve and coordinate the VaticanÂs various communications operations, Mr. Burke and the Vatican spokesman said.
Some Vatican watchers called the move a power play by media-savvy Americans  including Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan, the archbishop of New York and the president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops  inside a Vatican hierarchy run by Italians whose most frequent communications strategy is to accuse their critics of defamation.
Mr. Burke is a member of the conservative Opus Dei movement, and his hiring underscores the groupÂs role in the Vatican.
Cheers,
Scott.
