A friend with a doctorate in journalism sent this to me today with the comment, “I’m doing a lecture next week with my MA class on the differing academic definitions of news values – i.e. what makes a story newsworthy. Tipperary Live are trying to single-handedly destroy decades of communications theory”

  1. You should listen to TippFm and especially Fran Curry.

  2. I bet they stand in the middle of the aisles and block up everything, and look totally inconvenienced when you try and get past them. I know this from experience because my mother is one of them.

  3. CountyNamelive.ie website is why the internet was invented.

  4. I see nothing wrong with this, these papers cater for older people, a nice little story. Your friend needs to get over themselves

  5. There’s far, far worse to see in journalism these days such as hack ‘journalists’ creating dumb opinion pieces designed to fuel the culture wars and generate clickbait.

  6. If it doesn’t show what’s in their shopping baskets then it’s not proper journalism. /s
