5/5You Irish!!
Just signed in and have enjoyed the news...good and bad. Always like to have access to the “auld sod”. Find the reporting style both accurate and novel as compared to the US news sources. Hope the newspaper survives the internet. Detroit Patrick

1/5Martin
I find your reporting very pro- British. If someone mentions ‘the north of Ireland’ you will change it to Northern Ireland, why? What you are doing is what the Brit’s want - portray the 6 counties as a different country oblivious to the thousands of Irish people who see it as much a part of Ireland as cork or Kerry. If you want to be viewed as an independent and honest news app then quote people in what and how they say things not as you would want them to say it. Actually, I’d love to know the answer to this question - are you instructed/told you MUST revere to the north of Ireland as Northern Ireland and change people’s reference to NI using any other term????

5/5News from an Irish perspective
I enjoy reading about what’s happening in Ireland as well as to hear what the Irish news media is saying about what’s happening around the world.

5/5Good format
As an ex-pat in America, I truly appreciate getting our favorite paper from home conveniently here. The app works consistently well, the content is just as pertinent, and the format of the app is very easily useable, clean, and clear. Thanks for the taste of home! Slainte!
