The Irish Family
''The Irish Family'' (later ''The Irish Family Press'') was an Irish weekly Roman Catholic newspaper from 1992 to 2008, providing news and commentary about the Roman Catholic Church and social issues. It was traditional Catholic in outlook, supporting the Tridentine Mass and critical of the European Union. It was founded as ''The Democrat'' in 1992 after the X Case.

In its first years it was run by Dick Hogan, a Mullingar-based local newspaper proprietor and Catholic activist. It published a regular column on Marian devotion by the theologian Fr Michael O'Carroll. It was strongly hostile to European integration and supported attempts to establish an independent Catholic political party.

Before the planned abortion was carried out, the family asked the Garda SÃochána (police) if DNA from the aborted foetus would be admissible as evidence in the courts, as the neighbour was denying responsibility. The garda asked the Attorney General's office for advice. Attorney Genera ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
