Hello, Peter. Sorry I didn't see this question before now. That mention of Pope Francis is meant to reaffirm when the story takes place, which is in our near future. The other references in that scene are in the past, and to Peter the Pope Francis reference is in the past, as well. Really, it's more aimed at the fictional Teresa Whytas, who is, in Peter's time, as well known for her broadcast of the assassination as are Walter Cronkite, Herb Morrison and Russ Hodges. As a future journalist, Peter would like to make "That kind of impact." and be "That kind of famous."
