Southern media aren’t giving Northern politics fair coverage

Given that the political establishment and the press in the South are newly interested in what is happening in the North, I was surprised that the following story went largely unreported by media over the last couple of days.

A bullet has been found lodged in the exhumed body of Joseph Murphy, a father-of-12 and victim of what has become known as the Ballymurphy Massacre.

His body was exhumed on Tuesday, to uncover evidence from the 1971 British Army shootings.
