wow!

Journos is short for journalist and a hack is also a slang term for the same

So, anyway, who's actually worth reading in the Irish newspapers?

Gene Kerrigan is apparently the only person employed by INM that is sane.

Eamon Dunphy.

Insightful, reasoned, impartial analysis. No hyperbole or exaggeration of any kind.................. cough.

Aye, the auld lad buys the Sindo, I always go straight to the back page to read Kerrigan, he's not afraid to tell things like they are.

But god it's a terrible paper.

According to an article in the Daily Mail last month, 262% of hacks have - at some stage in the last year - peddled drugs to pay for their crack habits, whoring & to fund medicinal treatments for their STDs.

That's a 4,525,312% increase on last year's figures.

Given that he works for INM that proposition is open to debate ?

I think he's their token rational person, so the rest of them can feel comfortable being nutters.
