I REFER to the letter from Mr Tom Hayes published on November 2 regarding the Ryan Report on child abuse, and in particular the following:

I REFER to Gregóir de Buitléir’s letter (‘A Mon boy rallies to defence of Christian Brothers’, May 14) in response to Matt Cooper’s column (May 9) about the brothers at the ‘North Mon’ in Cork.

DAVID IRVING’S three-year jail sentence for casting doubts on the Holocaust is incredible when you consider what his Stalinist counterparts got away with.

I SEE my letter regarding Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles (Irish Examiner, October 18) attracted a couple of replies. When the cardinal was accused of sexual assault, the Los Angeles Times put the story on page 1.

A FEW years ago a woman accused Cardinal Roger Mahony of sexually assaulting her and the Los Angeles Times (LAT) put the story on the front page.
