Sir Robert rides again

Some of you may be familiar with the byline Robert Nowell. He’s been a longtime correspondent for RNS in and around London. I’ve exchanged countless e-mails and phone calls with him, but never met him and never knew what he looked like. Until he popped up on the Today Show as a “religious affairs correspondent” talking about the pope’s comments on condoms in Africa.

And here, without further ado, is the man we affectionately refer to as Sir Robert. He pops up around the 1:15 marker:


You're part of the solution.
Thank you for visiting RNS and reading our independent news about religion. At a time like this, when the world seems to be changing so rapidly, it's more important than ever to provide trustworthy coverage of how religion is impacting policy, power, and people. As a nonprofit, RNS is proud to provide this service for free to all, thanks to generous support of readers just like you.

So today, as we wrap up our spring fundraising campaign in just a few days, I'm asking for your help. Can you make a gift today to ensure our journalists have the resources they need to keep bringing you this reporting? Our goal is to raise $10,000 by the end of this month, all of it to support this vital work. Any amount helps! We're grateful you care about this news, and that you come to RNS to read it. Thank you.
