SF getting some hammering on Nolan today. Ladies being called out for some vile tweets.
Haven't listened to that show in many years. My reasoning was vindicated once again last week when I was directed to the audio clip from one of his shows.
On the day the latest Ombudsman's report came out in relation to 19 cases of collusion, Nolan invited the daughter of the late Cllr Eddie Fullerton to talk about his murder and about the Ombusdman's findings of state collusion in the killing.
He thought it appropriate to challenge her on Eddie's membership of SF, and how she felt about the 'morality' of that. In other words, on a day when a murder victim's daughter was reeling with pain, he took the opportunity to take the "justification" his killers used for the murder, and throw it at his daughter as though it was a fair point.
He tried a few times to say he wasn't trying to justify the murder - but the question was so carefully worded that it stopped just short of asking "did he not deserve it?"
No harm, but anyone who contributes to his listener figures needs to step back and think about what they are enabling.
