Journalist Joe MacAnthony details his experiences of working within the Irish mainstream media. From the early heady days in his time with the Irish Times, where 'scandal thrived in house', to the wage cuts and ostracism following his exposure of Ray Burke's dealings. read full story / add a comment

Hillary Clinton ratcheted up the threats to Iran on Monday ahead of the Democrat Party’s decisive primary election in the state of of Pennsylvania. Delivering a well-prepared response on ABC's Good Morning America program to a loaded question about what she would do in the event of Iranian nuclear attack on Israel, Clinton warned , "In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them. That's a terrible thing to say but those people who run Iran need to understand that because that perhaps will deter them from doing something that would be reckless, foolish and tragic." read full story / add a comment
