New Year’s Day edition

IT was disappointing to note a series of errors on pages 8 and 9 of the New Year’s Day edition of the Irish Examiner.

1. The caption under the cabinet photograph refers to ‘the Government of Taoiseach Liam Cosgrave’. The photograph is that of a Fianna Fáil cabinet under ‘the real’ Taoiseach, Jack Lynch.

2. The photograph under which the caption “Pope Paul VI” appears is that of Pope John Paul I.

3. “Labour’s Paddy Donegan” was a colourful, if conservative, Fine Gael minister.
