VATICAN CITY, Jan. 11 (UPI) -- The Discovery Channel admits it made an exaggerated claim that the Vatican is officially involved in the cable TV channel's series on exorcism.
Gary Auerbach, producer of the 10-part "Exorcist Files," said he did meet with some Vatican officials, the Italian news agency ANSA said. He also said priests authorized to perform exorcism who helped with the show had to get permission from their bishops to do so.
