    Previous thread on this subject was locked so maybe this is a banned topic. But I was just going through Sindo and this is the nastiest and most vindictive article I have seen in a long time. No idea who Una Healy is and had never heard of her before but the article is really vicious and seems to be based on nothing more that she went out a few nights and had a few drinks. Why does Niamh Horam hate her and why did the Sindo print such a vindictive hate piece.

    In boards.ie, Sindo is a special case

    Use of the word 'cringiest' by a professional journalist is extremely disappointing.

    But not wholly unexpected from the paper in question.

    She's dead right

    It was a silly & lazy article in my opinion. But then again that's hardly shocking from the Sindo.

    Just goes to show the quality of gutter journalism the Irish Independent has (not recently) descended to.

    You could google her name and read some of the thrash articles she writes, they make for cringeworthy reading. Or better still don't bother.

    I await your attempt at writing an article with bated breath

    You're going to have a long wait so.

    Did Una steal Niamhs boyfriend or kill her dog? Surely there has to be a personal reason for an article like that. no way she could have that much hate for someone that had not crossed her.

    If there was a "rule" that you had to be good at stuff you criticise others for, nobody would be able to have a negative opinion on anything ever.

    Young successful girl has a few drinks? Shocker. Definately seems like there's an agenda there alright.

    So you imply that the only people who can form an opinion the quality of an article has to be a journalist themselves?

    That was a very stupid post.
    Don't give out about that. By your logic I am perfectly qualified to form an opinion on your posts. :)

    I've just read the article - yes, I cringe all right... for the gossip merchant who calls herself a journalist, not the singer one.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 6,162 ✭✭✭Augmerson


    Why are people still reading these rags?

    Niamh Horan is a $hit journalist working for a rag newspaper. She's a really nasty bltch. Ive only read a few of her tripe articles, but she's worse than Alison ORiordan.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,298 ✭✭✭Namlub


    Were you expecting journalistic integrity or something?

  • Registered Users Posts: 559 ✭✭✭danger mouse


    Oh dear god!!!! How does this girl get published in a national newspaper? Her and alison o'riordan must be sitting in their over priced flat every friday night making up stories for this sunday poo rag.

    Sunday Independent has been tabloid gutter trash for a long time. More obsessed with the personal lives of C-list "celebrities" than reporting genuine news topics of interest.

    Such headlines as "What Rosanna did next" are commonplace. They dont appear to realise that nobody gives a toss about what Rosanna, Glenda or their nobody friends did next!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 206 ✭✭MRBEAVER


    So why does Niamh hate Una? And why did the Sindo print an article like that?
