PARIS (AP) — A newspaper poll shows Pope Benedict XVI's popularity has plunged in heavily Roman Catholic France.
Le Parisien daily says its survey found 57% of respondents have a negative opinion of the pontiff. That's up from only 25% in a similar poll shortly before his visit to France last September.
Twenty-three percent expressed a positive opinion, down from 53% six months ago. The remainder had no opinion.
The survey of 1,012 adults was conducted Wednesday and Thursday and published Saturday. It gave no margin of error.
I wonder how many of those surveyed are mass attending Catholics?
