It's easy to criticise. It's easy to criticise the management class. It's easy to criticise the management class in the institutional Irish Catholic Church.
It's another matter to offer constructive advice and help.
But what's happening right across the Catholic Church in Ireland did not begin yesterday or today. Nor has it been totally influenced by the clerical child sex abuse scandal. It's been years of poor management.
The news which has been disseminated about the event outside the Dominican Priory in Tallaght on Saturday is simply sad.
The photograph and story in today's Drogheda Independent is sad.
It's all sad.
But a five-minute course in anything to do with the media would never have allowed those pictures to have happened.
