Overview
Fulton Sheen was a best-selling religious writer, popular broadcaster, and television celebrity. He was watched and followed by millions of people worldwide. But his fans weren’t the only ones following him. The FBI had the Bishop under surveillance, keeping an eye and an ear on his every move: from his pastoral schedule, to his passion for chocolate ice cream. Even his fines for traffic violations were well documented.
