EWTN is the network for Catholic radtrads (and only radtrads); they have a hatred of modernity that is really pathological. If anyone is promoting schism in the Church today, it's EWTN. They are highly vertically integrated; they own the National Catholic Register (not to be confused with the National Catholic Reporter), a book publisher, and a radio network in addition to cable and satellite TV channels. They are so ubiquitous as to become a sort of "private Magisterium" that often (most of the time) causes conflicts both inside and outside the Church.
