Joe Biden is scheduled to meet with the Pope on Friday, which is normally considered a big deal.
However, the Vatican decided to cancel the live feed of the meeting without any explanation.
Instead, they only showed Biden’s motorcade arriving.
This latest restriction to media coverage of the Holy See has resulted in several complaints from White House officials, as well as journalists.
The Vatican did say that it would provide edited footage of the meeting to accredited media, but provided no explanation as to why they edited the footage to begin with.
Some question whether the Vatican edited the footage in order to send a message to the Biden Administration after Jen Psaki got into a verbal spat with a reporter from a catholic news agency over abortion on Wednesday.
Pope Francis has upheld church opposition to abortion.
