I would like to bring Dr. Mercille back to the comparative aspect rather than having a general discourse about the media. There is The Guardianin Britain and further to the left, there isL'Humanitéin France, which has a strong connection with the communist party there and so forth. By Dr. Mercille's admission, it does not matter whether a newspaper is left or right wing; the issue is whether the reporting is accurate and logical. How does Ireland compare on the accuracy of its reporting as opposed to the blend of ideological positions in the mass media?
