Church: Cardinal’s ‘nighty-night, baby’ tweet was for sister

In this Jan. 6, 2017, file photo, Cardinal Joseph Tobin delivers the homily during a Mass ceremony installing him as the new archbishop of the Archdiocese of Newark, at the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark, N.J. The New Jersey archbishop raised a few eyebrows when he tweeted “Nighty-night, baby. I love you” on Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2018. But his spokesman said it was an errant message intended for his sister, and the archbishop later deleted the tweet because it was being misinterpreted. (AP Photo/Julio Cortez, File)
