"reporter-free newsroom" my brother in christ that's just called a room

@243_cal They did, in a response to a query from the Examiner.

The Health Service Executive never apologised, they merely said they "regretted" employing a Moroccan doctor after he was accused by a female nurse colleague of raping her while she slept on a sofa. (A jury found the evil pig guilty)

The HSE has apologised for its “failure” to suspend a UHL doctor which “added to the suffering” of a young nurse, who was raped and sexually assaulted in Limerick. irishexaminer.com/news/munster/a…

I reported this story and have been working around the clock since Saturday to cover the deaths and obtain definitive evidence so that we can confidently assign responsibility. We've been reviewing photos of the dust covered bodies of children and verifying their names against the names scrawled on little coffins. We've been debunking false claims about the attack and that the harrowing cemetery photo isn't real. And while it appeared obvious to many early on that the U.S. or Israel hit the school, it takes days to sift through, pinpoint and analyze the evidence. It took four days before a new satellite image we ordered came through so we could confidently assess the damage and the types of weapons used. All that reporting and cross checking and the production of the visuals showing it takes time. But it ultimately allows us to more confidently assert U.S. responsibility, explain our rationale and add to the body of reporting that officials should be challenged with. It's easy to critique a headline, and I agree language matters, but you diminish the reporting. We're not justifying anything, we're stating where the reporting points responsibility, and quoting legal experts on the laws of armed conflict. Here's a gift link nytimes.com/2026/03/05/wor…

@FearStairLmk I personally often see a bunch of them. It’s hard to grab coffee in Limerick without bumping into half the city. But some do attend more events than others!

Looking forward to seeing the local councillors clambering to get into the photos of the opening of Mango. As someone who lives & works city centre, I rarely see any of them in restaurants, pubs, hotels or heritage events in the city! Suburban-based city councillors! #Limerick

@DanMonty93 @moranjohna1 Thanks a mil, Daniel!

@ManonGilbart @moranjohna1 Great reporting as usual, Manon 👏

I spoke to Limerick mayor @moranjohna1 yesterday after he accused some councillors of trying to undermine his mayoral term, and being “hostile” towards him. Mr Moran said council meetings should be recorded and made available to the public. Read more at the link below

Fianna Fáil minister of state Niall Collins has expressed support for John Moran, even if “some councillors” from his own party are “seeking to disrupt” his term. “Every meeting seems to be a crisis or a battle for him to try and deliver,” he said. irishexaminer.com/news/munster/a…

The Government must appoint a mediator to resolve the “mayoral stasis” in Limerick, a local TD has claimed, after John Moran hit out at some local councillors for being “hostile” towards him. irishexaminer.com/news/munster/a…

A further €5.7m will be allocated to ensure the upcoming Ryder Cup  leaves a “lasting legacy” in Adare and Limerick, but some local businesses are set to be “discommoded”.
