http://irishjournalist.blogspot.com/2009/01/roscommon-planning-process-and-paying.html

The blog of an Irish journalist. Monday, January 26, 2009. Roscommon and paying double for music. Last week's incest and neglect case in Roscommon is the most disturbing case I've covered. Barry Andrews, minister for children, was quick to react and by Saturday the HSE announced it was to hold an "independent" inquiry. Mairead O'Shea in Roscommon reported from the mother's trial for us in the Sunday Times as we covered the the legal issues and fallout surrounding the case. In a focus piece. 8220;People w...

http://irishjournalist.blogspot.com/2009/01/planning-and-dealing-with-reporters.html

The blog of an Irish journalist. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Planning and dealing with reporters. One other yarn I had last week was about the residents of Creighton Street. In Dublin agreeing to withdraw a planning objection for the tidy sum of 1.6m euro. Fair enough point I thought so I offered to meet him in person and show my credentials. But this was met with a "I'm not helping you find out anything," before he hung up. I suppose it depends on how much information the journalist has as to whether the...

While the state has battled for the Irish language in Europe it's not as keen to give it equality when it comes to the hundreds of statutory instruments that are published each year in English only.

Crime, ink: April 2009

http://irishcrimereporter.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

The world of an Irish crime reporter. April 5, 2009. I spy with my little eye. 8220;Oh Shit, Mick,” I hiss at my colleague, photographer Mick O’Neill. He’s sitting in the back of the people carrier. “What? The complaint came from a local citizen. As the cops grilled us in a polite and friendly way, he lurked at his driveway, about 10 yards away. So the hours passed. The neighbour would occasionally come out of his house, see us and nod conspiratorially towards us. I went through the rigmarole of explanat...

The world of an Irish crime reporter. September 21, 2009. 8220;I know this is a stupid question, but I’m paid to ask them: how do you feel? His face betrays a gamut of emotions: terror, disbelief, despair, denial. While I shake his hand, he stares off into the distance, as if he is can’t quite comprehend what is happening to him. He looks as if he hasn’t slept since he walked free from a Garda station, 17 hours earlier: but who could blame him? The previous night he had been arrested after Brenda died fo...

Crime, ink: Genuflecting your way out of dodge.

http://irishcrimereporter.blogspot.com/2009/06/genuflecting-your-way-out-of-dodge.html

The world of an Irish crime reporter. June 30, 2009. Genuflecting your way out of dodge. I loiter in the park across the road from the church, plucking up the necessary courage. Eventually, after a few minutes’ prevarication, I know I have no choice. I come out of the park, cross the road and walk slowly through the car park of St. Joseph’s, my heart pounding. Then I sit there, surrounded by other mourners for the duration of the funeral mass. I have a small digital Dictaphone in my hand, which I tur...
