Irish Daily Mail Racism
It's nice to see that the Oirish Daily Mail hasn't taken long to bring its anti immigrant message over to Paddyland. In today's exciting edition a story about a group of Ethiopian Government officials claiming political asylum in Ireland is portrayed as a group of thieving blacks coming to steal our jobs and what's more they'll bring their families too.
Sadly the Mail seems to be selling well here although that was at its below cost price of 30 cent a copy. It has now risen to 50 cent (still below cost) but maybe it will have an effect on sales.

Hello from America
I was tag searching Ireland on Flickr.com and found your blog. Interested in your opinions and view of Irish news. I work in a news room in NYC.
Read your entry about Kilmainham Gaol and it tied into my research today of the auction of 'IRA' memerobilia at http://www.mealys.com/books.htm announced on American Public Radio http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5332680.
Are you aware of this auction?
