A statement from Alejandro Bermudez, executive director of Catholic News Agency and ACI Prensa:

I was surprised to see that my name has been added to the list of signatories on the so-called Correctio Filialis De Haeresibus Propagatis.

I never signed this letter, nor do I intend to ever sign it. As a journalist, I was surprised at how easily the name of a person could be added to the list without any verification.

Update 2:44 p.m.: Bermudez' name was removed from the list of signatories at his request.
