Irish Independent versus Gerry Adams and Sinn Fein (1916- 2015) continued.... (Part 2)

 You can stop a thief but you can never stop a malicious liar. If you are found out then get someone else to do it under the guise of free speech. We are talking about The Irish Independent’s war of words, where truth is always guarded by a bodyguard of lies, against Gerry Adams and Sinn Fein. The Irish Independent's freelance writers and political critics are encouraged to write and speak more ‘independently’. Here are a few soundbites of what that means:                                

                                                                       Gerry Adams

 Alan Shatter, a former corrupt minister who hates whistleblowers - and who was forced to resign earlier this year after a series of Garda scandals - talks dirty about Sinn Fein:
“And many of those who are now popular in the opinion polls are people whose pronouncements in public, if they had been implemented and taken seriously, would have bankrupt the country two or three years ago."I think that if Sinn Fein was into government it would pose very serious risks to the economy of this country.” He forgot to mention that Fianna Fail were the ones who did bankrupt this country and Fine Gael is making sure we stay that way

Gerry Adams: “And when the Irish Independent condemned his actions (In 1920) as 'murder most foul' what did Michael Collins do? He dispatched his men to the office of the Irish Independent and held the editor at gunpoint as they dismantled the entire printing machinery and destroyed it.
Irish Independent in 2014 reported this as a veiled threat against them 

“ If these men (that included Michael Collins) are treated with too much leniency they will take it as an indication of weakness on the part of the Government (A British one) Let the worst of the ringleaders be singled out and dealt with as they deserve.”

“Watching Sinn Fein and the hard left slug it out for control the country right now is to be constantly reminded of the tag line for Alien Vs Predator: Whoever wins, we all lose.”

"No one needs to ask what O'Connor was thinking because she'd already told them. The singer openly traces her conversion to the ranks of SF back to a recent immersion in reading about 1916. It's a crucial detail, confirming the dangerous pull of the Rising as the centenary approaches, which SF is drawing on as a vampire feeds on blood.

On 17th May 2014, The Irish Independent was found by the the Code Of Practice for Newspapers to have published several unfounded accusations against Gerry Adams. Gerry commented: “The biased and downright offensive coverage of Sinn Fein and myself in particular is unprecedented in the history of newspapers in this country. As far back as the execution of James Connolly this media group has painted untruths and stories that are absolutely malicious about Sinn Fein.”
