Fair play! Geraghty's an awful bigot and deserves every lash of the karmic whipping that's on its way. I wouldn't excuse a blog post of that vein but to publish such unfounded, subjective trash in a regional paper is outrageous. If ethos in running such a story was genuine, a campaign for action from local Gardai would be a reasonable move. Unsubstantiated attacks on vulnerable individuals is downright sensational and thoughtless. Damage to the public in dragging the local Castlebar.ie forum into closure as a direct result is further proof of the Tony Geraghty's inadequacy in his role as editor of the Mayo Echo. Good riddance!
I listened to the podcast of Mr Geraghty on Liveline. He was asked why he wouldn't / didn't contact the gardai. His answer is indicative of his mentality.

"...simply facilitating those who want to be heard is not good enough, where we need to ensure that we are not overly swayed by obsessive bloggers, where we have to make sure that those who do not have the time or the inclination to voice their views and opinions in public, can still get continued democratic representation." M.O.S. Tom Kitt TD "There’s a virulent group of people out there helping this campaign, especially on the internet, the blogs reached an incredible level of abuse in the last ten to fifteen days, and I mean really bad stuff."Senator Eoghan Harris
