Death of revisionist Irish history will follow Eoghan Harris downfall

Comments
The fallout continues after Eoghan Harris, one of Ireland’s most influential journalists was fired after creating at least ten anonymous Twitter accounts that savagely attacked other media figures including a top female journalist in such personal terms she went to the police over the attacks. The Twitter accounts also carried relentless praise for Harris’s columns, written by himself.
Eoghan Harris’s downfall may mean much more than just his departure. It marks the end of revisionist Irish history that he and many others peddled.
For decades, Harris was the most powerful journalist in Ireland who used his platform in the leading Irish newspaper, the Sunday Independent, to attack Sinn Féin and any media reporters who he disagreed with, with as vitriolic and bitter a manner as possible.
