Belated comment on Gwen Halleys article

There are so many deficiencies in this article in terms of style and content its hard to know where to begin but here goes. The article is extremely crass in terms of the mudslinging with reguards Sinead O'Connor and also Halley's constant references to sex or sexual activity/attitudes. Her whole polemic is based on Browne's alleged sexism yet she clearly displays inverted sexism when calling "tribunals, sport and cars" male gossip. Her use of the term "rednecks" is also typical of the elitism one would expect from the Sindo. She mentions Browne's interview with Dana twice, as both a reason for her admiration and loathing of him. In fact the whole slew of references to her time in Griffith College gives the piece something of the air of the lover scorned. Her reference to "our group"when talking about Independent News and Media is revealing. She seems to have married two of the groups favourite themes- slagging off Vincent Browne and the I.R.A and Sinn Fein. I wont go down to her level by commenting on her alleged current "romance". There is no statistical backing to any assertion she makes and her use of adjectives is utterly predictable. All in all the article reads like someone with very little real information trying to skirt around a subject by being controversial.
