    The Editor of the Irish Times, Geraldine Kennedy, has announced her retirement as editor of the newspaper.

    It is understood that Ms Kennedy announced at the paper's news conference that her current contract will expire in September when she turns 60.

    She told colleagues at the conference that she has not sought an extension to her contract and will be retiring as editor.

    However, she will remain in-situ until a successor is appointed.
    It is not known how long that process will take.
    From RTE.

    I can't say I'll be sad to see her go. Any ideas who who could replace her? Is Fintan O'Toole still a candidate?

    Maybe this explains his sudden election u-turn...

    Maybe, but I thought he explained his reasons for not running quite well.

    Doubt it, he'd have to do some real work for a change instead of all the whinging he's been at for the past few years.

    Will Cliff Taylor, SBPost Editor return to his old stomping ground to take charge of the ailing ship as she approaches even choppier economic waters?
