Venerable Fulton J Sheen ~ False Compassion

Bishop Fulton J. Sheen on False and True Compassion.

For 20 years as Father Sheen, later Monsignor, he hosted the night-time radio program "The Catholic Hour" on NBC (1930–1950) before moving to television and presenting "Life Is Worth Living" (1951–1957). Sheen's final presenting role was on the syndicated "The Fulton Sheen Program" (1961–1968) with a format very similar to that of the earlier "Life is Worth Living" show. For this work, Sheen twice won an Emmy Award for Most Outstanding Television Personality, and was featured on the cover of "Time Magazine". Starting in 2009, his shows were being re-broadcast on the EWTN and the Trinity Broadcasting Network's Church Channel cable networks. Due to his contribution to televised preaching Sheen is often referred to as one of the first televangelists.
