Bishop defends media coverage of Limerick

The Right Rev Trevor Williams, a former journalist for the BBC in Belfast and who is to retire as a Church of Ireland Bishop of Limerick and Killaloe in the summer, yesterday defended media coverage of Limerick over the years.

He said that, beyond the front-page headlines, readers of newspapers got a more complete picture of the city’s great aspects in their overall coverage

Bishop Williams, 66, who lives in Adare, intends to move to the North with his wife Joyce when he steps down at the end of July. They have three adult sons.
