Liveline - Magill article about David Norris - Mon 30 May - RTE Radio One -- Mon, 30 May 2011         THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY

"Finally Helen Lucy Burke rang us about an interview she did with David Norris in 2002 - published in Magill magazine - she believed some of his views expressed in the interview made him unsuitable as a Presidential candidate. In a statement from David Norris he said 'the presentation of references to sexuality in the article attributed to me were misleading in that they do not convey the context in which they were made. People should judge me on my actions as a public servant, over the last 35 years and on the causes and campaigns, for which I have fought, and not on an academic conversation with a journalist over dinner' (From the RTE website) [AUDIO PODCAST] - RTE Radio 1 Liveline - Mon 30 May 2011

Comment: "Is this appeal of David Norris not equivalent to a priest asking that he be judged, only, on how he offers Mass? (in the narrow sense)"

With regard to respecting the Sabbath Day: "A lot of us, myself included, would have moved on from that now" - Maeve Dineen [AUDIO PODCAST - 12 minutes into broadcast]...

Texted response to Maeve Dineen's comment from listener: 'Re Sunday rates of pay, your guest said that we have "moved on" from keeping the Sabbath. Hardly a positive "move". We "moved on" in the same way from Christian principles between 2001 and 2008, and bankrupted the country! David, Dublin'

Tommy Tiernan lashes out at media - the new moral authority! -- Fri, 27 May 2011         



On the John Murray Show, this morning, comedian Tommy Tiernan turned his guns on the media as the new moral authority, sections of which he compared to some of the priests of a previous era when they used their pulpits to speak out against certain individuals: "That was absolutely a Dublin based thing and a media based thing...The media in Ireland is fairly, I mean, it's ah, I think, so, you know, you have to be careful what you say, you know, because some of the papers now, the tabloids, in a sense, and some of the radio shows, I think: you listen to Marian sometimes on a Saturday, or, ah, you get the feeling that you have to kind of justify yourself to them or something, that there is. There is a great sense of morality, or, I don't like it, I tend to steer away from it, and, with the tabloids, the tabloids have, in a sense, replaced the Church: the tabloids now decide who's guilty and who's innocent and they'll give out to you from their pulpit and there's no, you can't question the tabloids because they're too powerful and they'll come after you. It is the same as 50 years ago, you know, the priest giving out about you and you dare not say anything because your name might be called out next week, you know." Unsurprisingly DJ John Murray didn't attempt to explore, further, the theme of the media with his guest [AUDIO - 17 mins into broadcast - there are interesting aspects to the rest of the interview, also]


Finola Bruton challenges Irish Universities' Women and Gender Studies departments -- Thu, 26 May 201         



Finola Bruton said, today, that the Women and Gender Studies departments of Irish universities should ask: why are so many men on the dole? and not just why are so few women in the boardroom?

In Ireland, approximately 17% of men are, now, unemployed, in the wake of the onset of the recession. This compares with approximately 10% of women.

Ms Bruton was speaking at the Iona Institute conference, Women, home and work; towards a policy that's fair to all families in the Davenport Hotel, Dublin, this afternoon.
