Vatican's communications site runs Batman story

VATICAN CITY (AP) - One of the Vatican's main Twitter accounts and the web site of its communications office were running stories about Batman on Thursday with the headline "Holy Switcheroo!" - raising concerns they might have been hacked.

But two Vatican officials said the site hadn't been hacked, and that the reason for the unusual posting was an "internal system failure" due to a non-native English speaker posting the story on the website.

The story was from the Catholic News Service.

It has as its headline: "Holy Switcheroo! Batman has grown bitter, more vengeful with the years" and details the evolution of the Batman comic franchise.
