Parochial news for an insular media

An Irish media outlet reported that the Karlsruhe judgement concerning Bundestag bailouts was 'tight'.

The ruling was a seven to one judgement.

It seems there is not a word in any Irish media outlet on Tuesday's gas turn on near Greifswald. The event is of major European economic importance.

And very little reporting on the priest who has won his paternity case. This is a major news story.

Instead we read in all our newspapers about three Irish woman on holiday in Portugal who are robbed.
