Callan's Kicks and slaps too

Dominican priest and editor of the free-sheet 'Alive!' Brian McKevitt featured on RTE Radio 1's satirist show Callan's Kicks yesterday.

Fr McKevitt had earlier in the week been on the Joe Duffy Show, 'Liveline'. He was defending an article in the current issue of the free-sheet 'Alive!, which is on the subject of slapping children.

On the 'Liveline' show he appeared to say that 'Alive!' has an editorial board.

In Ireland it is an offence to slap children.

Mike Heaney in his radio column in today's Irish Times gives significant space to the McKevitt Duffy spar.

He finishes his piece referring to McKevitt's widely circulated but decidedly retor assettions.
