Anti-Harris bandwagon driven by the blogs

WITH the notable exception of the Irish Examiner and the Irish Times, there is a trend among some journalists to jump on the ‘Bash Harris’ bandwagon.

It would appear few of these people are prepared to give credit where it is due and would rather copy the juicy nonsense they elicit from internet blogs and which has resulted in much of the inaccurate and untruthful reporting in the past week or so.

The most obvious myth is that Harris claimed personal credit for Bertie Ahern’s victory in the recent general election. Not so.
