Injustice in Ireland ? Look at Scotland and SNIPPED.

mf135

Last year the BBC were ready to run three stories on SNIPPED.

A Radio Scotland radio broadcast, a BBC Scotland TV program and a national Panorama TV program. The BBC had an exclusive on the story and were sure this story would go round the world.

But the broadcasts were cancelled and the 3 BBC reporters involved were threatened with their jobs and told they were not to report any more stories on child abuse in Scotland.

It takes a little time and effort to read up on SNIPPED, but it demonstrates the abuse of power that is all too familiar here in Ireland, especially regarding the child abuse issue.

The difference in this story, is that we have hard evidence of people in positions of power in Scotland refusing to do their job and represent the people. Also, we have the media being threatened not to run a very significant story.

This situation appears not to have happened in Ireland yet or does anybody know different ?.

do you have proof of the BBC's work or is this just a story you have heard ?

No offence to you but a first post claiming the powers that be cover up a child abuse story in scotland and asking if people know of similar stories in Ireland.... are you doing research for a book and looking for child abuse scandal stories ?
