The media has been trying to dig up dirt on Jose Mario Bergoglio, the new pope.
Most of it centres around the Catholic Church's role in Argentina's brutal military dictatorship.

Live on air from Buenos Aires, Al Jazeera's Lucia Newman talks on how these allegations are being viewed in Argentina and the new pope's reputation as a leader there.
