What did the newspaper actually say? The headline doesn't appear to be a direct quote.

The Catholic Church really has improved its turn around time.

At the time John said it, it was true. However the Beatles never managed to nurture a herd of cross dressing groupies to keep the shtick going in the long haul. So contrary to Judas' assertion mass communication doesn't necessarily carry the day.
