Anyone who's a Catholic or has followed the Catholic Church and its leadership knows that current social standards and mores have little impact on them - they are so buried in two millenia ago, not just one, and they are more concerned with bending people to their will than making even the slightest changes to their way of thinking.
You don't think seeing the church patrons question the faith doesn't put pressure on the leadership? Are they gaining more or less by bending people and staying so far in the past that they make little sense in today's society? I think the Pope has been disgusted by what he see's in the Media and has expressed that openly and probably feels more like a figurehead than an actual force. It's only an opinion.
