THE BOOK LAUNCH

Just feast your eyes on that cover. A real book, and one Leentje has laboured over as a labour of love but also an important statement about her father.

ETHICAL CHOICES REVISITED

Let's start with a few questions:

• Should Vincent Browne have sent an uninformed journalist to interview Albert Folens about his wartime activities when Albert asked for the journalist to be informed and presumably Browne had agreed?

PEELING THE ONION

In 1985 Albert Folens was "interviewed" by a journalist about what he did during WWII. It seems to have been less of an interview and more of an interrogation. The journalist seems to have come "prepared" in that he had already come to the conclusion that he was about to reveal a brutal Nazi war criminal who had penetrated the very heart of Irish society. This was to be the scoop of a lifetime. He was unprepared, however, for what he met.
