Who knows what the Sunday World, or the Evening Herald will fill their pages with now? The Gardai have been fined €70,000 for breach of privacy after the High Court held them responsible for leaking information to a newspaper. We might anticipate a break from such leaks for a week or two.
I'm slowly, slowly grinding through the Paper Round raw notes for the Sunday World. I just wanted to express my pain at the kind of gunk that it involved. I'll try to get it finished and do up a proper post, with a pie, before the weekend.
Weekend HeraldOriginally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. Rather a dull affair again. (Wiki Raw Notes) Like eating potato waffle after potato waffle, reading the Herald is journalistically un-nutritious, without any of the racy deep-fried-mars-bar lunacy of a full blown tabloid.
Like Fingerbobs, but made with facts, instead of digits. Factbob1: Speaking in UCC at the student Law Society Law Conference, Seamus Dooley of the NUJ conceeded that standards in newspapers have fallen in recent years. Factbob 2: At the same conference Gary Davis, the Deputy Data Protection Commissioner said that (a) Gardai were accessing telecommunications data at a rate of 10,000 requests a year.
Star Sunday Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. Notes are on the wiki for the Star Sunday, my final contribution to the Cause Celébre that The Paper Round has become. It was surprisingly hard work, and deeply depressing, but I for one am glad I did it.
Sunday Independent, 12th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. As many will know by now, having been linked to from Bloggorah of all places, the wiki notes for the Sunday Independent are complete.
Sunday Times Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. Notes now up on the wiki for the Sunday Times. A few cautionary notes:The Sunday Times is not an Irish paper.
Sunday Tribune Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. Raw notes are up on the Wiki for the Tribune. The best paper I read all weekend, and it's still only 23% journalism.
Irish Independent, 11th Nov 2006 Originally uploaded by Editor_Tupp. (Tabloid Edition)One of the dullest papers to do the Raw notes for. However, some points to note do occur.
