Columnist suffering from Labour tunnel vision

WHAT a pity that a person of Fergus Finlay’s ability fails to show any impartiality whatsoever when it comes to writing politics.

He compares so unfavourably to a former Irish Examiner columnist Noel Whelan, whose Fianna Fáil credentials are well known but who was always thoughtful, fair and non-predudicial in his articles.

In his column (Feb 9), Finlay reminds us of his past political connections, as special advisor to Dick Spring.
