Irish news…nothing happening
I stopped listening to the news or reading papers about 3 years before I left Ireland, it just annoyed and depressed me. Nothing happens. It’s a small place really. I have heard from two foreigners that lived in Ireland that they found it odd that road deaths made it on to the national news. It got me thinking and now when I check the Irish headlines I do screenshots of examples of just how little there is going on.
Example one: Somebody’s Granddad died
Example two: There have been no accidents.
Ridiculous. I check Google Ireland every morning and then in the night and usually the same non stories are still up there, some times for two days.
