Woeful Journalism

Newstalk referenced the following on their sports news just after 1pm yesterday: “Two goals from David Reidy helped Lmerick to a 2-16 to 0-22 victory over Waterford last night.”

shockingly bad article here from Rosaleen Mcdonagh showing a wonderfully blinkered perspective of travellers lives and a total lack of insight with wonderful quotes like

“The image of her sitting at her kitchen table, stitching and sewing will stay with me. Similarly, her words of having no settled friends, resonates and echoes, as she asks in 2015, how can this be?”

“Rose, with her flair, passion and keenness to learn how to read at 25, reminded us exactly how systemic racism impacts.”

Ah lovely.

I very much doubt that Anton

Heard that. Nathan Murphy. Anchor didn’t pick up on it eithrr

[QUOTE=“Sidney, post: 1057407, member: 183”]Read through that earlier, by Eilis O’Hanlon.

She compared Sinn Fein to the Nazis.

The Sindo has gone well beyond desperation stakes now and is in extreme parody territory.[/QUOTE]

are the Sindo seething that in their latest poll SF are +5%?
Jody Corcoran that attention seeking prick , ( oh im so depressed) was claiming some type of victory in December claiming that the Sindo’s exploitaion of Maria cahill’s abuse for their own gain and 20+ articles in the one edition from the likes of Ruth Dudley Edwards had swayed the nation away from SF…

Have another go.

pick up on what mate?

Has he been good at taking no for an answer?

You’re looking at the wrong story.

The paper of record …my hole

Gaelic activities don’t concern the Times

I wonder what the indo have against this lady or her family that they felt the need to publish this? Did the publish the details of all the other cases from Dun Laoighaire District Court that day?

The Times again. Does anyone in there even read what they publish.

Largely empty Mardyke? Good one Iano. Everyone knows the Mardyke is rammed for these games.

“I had a colonoscopy a few years ago where you can watch the whole thing on a television screen…” Anecdotal intro? Tick.

“In that moment we got to know Sexton’s two best qualities - his right testicle and his left testicle. He is one tough hombre…” I have no words.

“The first thing that you have to note when Ireland play England is that Johnny Sexton will line out in green.” This should have been the introductory point. Key info.

“Ireland’s key players are all Lions - all Test Lions.” Good point, hadn’t thought of that.

“Experience in the decision-making positions in Test match rugby is of enormous strategic advantage…” So erratic decision-making isn’t rewarded?

“There are a whole load of redoubtables who you could try and compare him with but it is just semantics…” This could be an Eminem lyric for all I know.

“It would be unfair to call his replacement Alex Goode a goalkeeper”. Wrong sport mate.

“I have no idea how this game is going to go…”. Always end with a defining statement, something to summarise your key points from earlier.
