VATICAN CITY — Vatican Radio, which broadcasts the pope’s message in 45 languages worldwide, is looking to a future in new media, said a top official Thursday, as the station launched an exhibition commemorating 80 years of broadcasting.
Monsignor Peter Wells of the Vatican’s secretariat of state said the broadcaster must embrace new media — “from the podcast to the iPad, from social networks like Facebook to micro-blogging platforms like Twitter” — to take advantage of the opportunities offered for evangelizing in the 21st century.
