I was very interested in what you said about the Antrim County Board of GAA not objecting to the commemoration. The Irish Examiner and probably the Irish Times (I didn't see the latter, but the stories are usually similar) claimed the GAA objected to it. Where on earth did they get that story? It reminds me of two headlines I saw, both claiming to quote 'senior Garda sources' (i.e the Garda press office, probably) about a Securicor van heist last March or Feb. The Irish Times headline: "Dublin criminal gangs blamed for €4 million heist'. The Daily Mirror headline? "Gardai blame Provos for €4 million heist" ! Evidently this 'Garda source' was telling different newspapers different things, or one paper was just making it up as they went along. Could anyone get a letter into either the Examiner or Irish Times about the GAA 'statement'? It'd be great if someone with the details did.
