Feck off would ye? Look at the way things are going. We need to be able to communicate with people and make sure theres not to much racial tension for when shit hits the fans, this isn't the U.S. or the U.K. the racism card won't work here for much longer.Am I reading this Right?http://www.indymedia.ie/article/90203#comment2405202008-12-15T12:54:51+00:00Fred JohnstonThe Irish Times commissioned 31 Irish writers to submit an essay to commemorate ...The Irish Times commissioned 31 Irish writers to submit an essay to commemorate the anniversary. One of them was written by a cartoon, a fictional character named Ross O'Carroll-Kelly. The Irish Times provided a cartoon illustration of the character to go with the essay. Then they advertised a Trinity reading by all the authors - including the cartoon - in their newspaper and included the cartoon illustration again, squeezed between Seamus Heaney and Roddy Doyle. No - there was in their advertising no mention of the fictional character's creator; we were supposed to be post-modern enough to accept that a cartoon, a fiction, could contribute to a set of essays on human rights. I wrote a letter on the topic but the IT appears to have refused to publish it. Am I missing something? (Interestingly, if one dug deep into the Trinity College announcement of the readings' event, one would eventually, after reaching their bookings' form, find that the creator of Ross O'Carroll-Kelly was actually reading - was this a last minute correction? I see that the subsequent anthology of the essays still features the fictional character, however.) Can we expect at some point a set of essays on Guantanamo featuring Dustin The Turkey?
