Irish Times has major crediblity issues after misrepresenting facts on abortion story.

The recent story by the Irish Times about an abortion that took place under the government's recent abortion bill turns out to be confusing and raises many questions about that paper's impartiality and credibility.
The Pro Life Campaign has said the recent apology from The Irish Times over its false and misleading story on abortion is “inadequate” and “raises major credibility issues” for the newspaper.

Not only is the legislation not effective it seems that the manner in which they reported may have breached the privacy of the woman in question.
The bias of the Irish Times when it comes to reporting on abortion has never been in doubt.
