What an absolutely outrageous move by Ms. O’Sullivan!!
At a time when the organisation she oversees is undergoing so much scrutiny, with the always lingering stink of Gardai (allegedly) being sweet on giving information to certain journalists, anyone with an ounce of cop-on would have avoided this photo.
John Wilson (whistleblower) has recently called for Ms. O’Sullivan to withdraw her candidature for Commissioner upon the publication of the report this week.
I call on her to withdraw now because she’s just an idiot for getting involved in a book launch by a journalist at this time.

Paul’s publisher: I know. Let’s launch a crime book right after the Love/Hate Series 5 finale!
Paul: Yeah!
Compiles Dublin crime stories.
He’s compiled nothing. Rather, he’s recompiled and rehashed the same old nonsense about Limerick and her people. Bocktherobber says it far better than I could: http://bocktherobber.com/2014/11/new-journalism-old-journalism-and-downright-bad-journalism-paul-williams-flogging-the-limerick-horse-to-death/
Thanks Spart.
Correction: ‘recompiles and rehashes Limerick crime stories’.
What is this woman on? Seriously. A book launch for a tabloid journo? FFS.
Well, technically he’s more Garda PR than Tabloid Journo….

Well,at least he came up with an original title.Great journalism as usual.
Nice to see Noirin rubbing shoulders with INM boss, Stephen Rae. Isn’t the DPP trying to get Rae and Clare Grady jailed for contempt in relation to the Anglo tapes. Or at least, that’s what the Irish Times reports
