Sunday Independent trying to decide Shell spin

category national | arts and media | other press author Sunday July 17, 2005 08:33author by Phuq Hedd Report this post to the editors

Funny evidence of two different titles being cooked up

The Sunday Independent (the weekend organ of the Independent Newspaper group, famously run by industry boss William Martin Murphy, leader of the attempt to break the unions in the 1913 Lockout immortalised in Strumpet City) has two copies of the same story sandwiching a fulminating opinion piece about the IRA.
