i think these allegations raised against him and his knowledge of mccarrick clearly show that there'smuch happening in respect of what needs to be said about their knowledge of the abuse scandal itself that they don't know and can't get their messages straight. they're now infighting. this is very serious. this is the beginning of the end as i see it. and certainly we in eca are calling for a new paradigm, a new discussion so that we can get to the bottom of what are the injustices that so many survivors worldwide have had to suffer and endure from this particular institution. >> i do want to talk to you about the action you're calling for in just a moment. but i want to get to the fact that the former archbishop didn't offer any evidence to support his accusation and we don't know what his motivation may be for going public with this accusation. some have suggested that he's a conservative and this is his way of attacking pope francis. the pope, though, says the letter speaks for itself and people should make their own judgment. so what is your judgment when you look at the wording o

let's look at the mccarrick case if other popes news about it, it was pope francis who took action asas cardinal dolan made his report. and cardinal dolan did his job in reporting this. and in chile, when the holy father got it wrong, he said he got it wrong and he was part of the problem. the pope is a man of integrity. and he will, in fact, take this -- take the right road and make the right decisions when he has actionable material, i'm confident of that. >> is vigano wrong that mccarrick tried to help you get your position where you are now in chicago? >> well, i would say, first of all, that scenario and that narrative seems to presuppose that i dropped out of the sky. i've been a bishop for 20 years, i've been appointed by three different popes. there have been studies and investigations on my suitability for a diocese in all three cases. so as far as i know, the work that the holy does for vetting people for various positions, i've never heard of one person going into the pope's office and saying you should appoint this one individual. that's absurd. >> cardinal cupich thank yo
