    It does a great job of parody & satire.
    And actually has more journalistic integrity than that other donegal red-top...

    President al-Assad and the Donegal connection was very good, any connection, no matter how tenuous and long ago and one of the local papers will have it.

    Just goes to show you how well written it is when people seem to take it so seriously. I actually find myself getting very frustrated reading some of the comments, not so much that people take it seriously but more so how aggressively they react to the stories, when I read the comments about threatening to report the authors to the ISPCA and the HSE I nearly fainted.

    Great site. Nice to see the local media getting a wee bit of fun poked in their direction, it'll do them no harm at all. Especially the somewhat bonkers daily site.

    considering the nature of the more recent stories, it looks like theyve got a site giving them plenty of ammunition!

    Tbh, I think you're giving them a bit too much credit by blaming the poor keyboard manufacturers of the world... :D
