Where do the newspapers find these people?

The headline at the Telegraph front page reads "'Miracle' secures sainthood for Pope";  the headline to the article itself, "Tailor 'cured' of cancer cited as Papal miracle".  Yes, there is a report of a miracle in Salerno, but it is not yet fully investigated.  Yes, there is another report of an earlier miracle in France, which is not fully investigated.  But the Venerable John Paul the Great has first to be beatified and then, afterward, after the process of canonisation happens, which is likely to consume any number of years, the then Blessed John Paul would be raised to the glories of the altars of the Church.  We are talking of years here, in the ordinary scheme of things, if indeed these events happen at all (as I suppose they will, Deo volente: but it is not a process that once begun necessarily concludes with canonisation).  Where did the Telegraph find this writer?
