The Episcopal News Service just moved a story titled

Standing Committee members celebrate commitment to transparency

It’s a story about a five-day long, closed-door meeting of the Standing Committee of the Anglican Communion which met in London.

 

When they weren’t celebrating their commitment to transparency, members of the Standing Committee held an election to fill an open seat. Last time I checked, the committee had not revealed the name of the person who was elected or the vote totals. The winner’s name will be revealed when and if he accepts the post, it was explained.

 

You won’t find many independent news accounts about the Standing Committee members celebrating their commitment to transparency during their five-day-long meeting in London because the meeting was closed to the public and to the press.
