An observation: Pope Benedict XVI gets less coverage on U.S. news programs than did Pope John Paul II. Anyone agree? Disagree?

He is not as outgoing as John Pual II. He has carried his reserved, professorial style into the Vatican. This is my impression.

He is primarily a torch-bearer for the previous pope. I did a little internet searching and found something that confirms my impressions of him. See the following citation.
