The scheduling of controversial columnist Kevin Myers as a moderator at a talk on censorship in Limerick strikes as a “provocative, calculated” move by the organisers, a professor at the University of Limerick has said.

Irish women should be grateful to Kevin Myers for highlighting the misogynistic crap that has passed off for so long as legitimate commentary, writes Alison O'Connor.

In a personal response to the Kevin Myers controversy, Joe Leogue criticises how mutual appreciation within an industry allowed that writer and others to get away with bileful commentary.

AS a veteran socialist/liberal commentator, Fergus Finlay (Irish Examiner, February 15) not surprisingly chooses to concentrate on the micro issues regarding lone parenthood — usually motherhood — in his take on Kevin Myers’ “disgusting article” in the Irish Times.
