Within this is a half page article on the use of facebook by Wexford politicians. It goes into detail about a few politicians Facebook profiles, including Fianna Fail's Michael Sheehan, who popularised his account by adding an Obama campaign style picture of himself.
There is No mention of the party who uses Facebook the most in Wexford, Sinn Féin.
Of course, we have gotten used to this media censorship by now.
The very same local paper which printed this article also edited pictures of the last Wexford Health Rally to exclude images of Sinn Féin members.
They also ran a pulic survey which concluded that 100% of the population would welcome the Queen of England here on a state visit, despite the ludicrous cost of said visit to the Irish Taxpayer, which of course was not mentioned.
Newspapers are supposed to report an unbiased, true account of the news. Instead we get a section 31-esque stance. A world view where Sinn Féin is airbrushed out of existence, and where our councillors are regularly misquoted or have their best statements credited to an opposition representative.
Maybe this explains why we are the biggest political user of Facebook in Wexford. It gives us a chance to break through the censorship curtain and tell the people of Wexford what we really represent and stand for. Them.
Can we overcome this media censorship and manipulation?
Yes We Can.
