Sir In the Sunday Independent of March 24, discount supermarket Aldi advertised Irish-grown potatoes and other vegetables for less than 50 cent per kilo, far below the cost of production.
On Newstalk Breakfast (Newstalk, weekdays, 7am), Ciara Kelly and Shane Coleman were riffing about a drift to the right in Irish politics. I like this riffing, it brings an energy to proceedings, and I’m aghast at those who say a presenter expressing an opinion is not proper journalism. On the contrary, knowing where somebody stands on the great issues can bring more clarity to proceedings than the “objective” style, which has inbuilt and unacknowledged biases of its own.
