Just interested in people's views;

Why has RTE failed to report about the rescue of a journalist with with dual british/irish nationality when they will normally report any irish interest story no matter how tenuous.

please feel free to contradict me as I only have access to their web page.

I cant remember if they did or didnt report on it.

We had a hell of a lot going on in the news here that day-

1 Silly journalist who holds an Irish passport gets kidnapped is not in my view newsworthy

the death of a young Paratrooper giving his life trying to rescue hinm should have been broadcasted

everywhere.

Whats your interest in this Naked Mole
