Blogging of a killing…

For months Northern Ireland was old news on the blogosphere. The Northern Bank robbery seemed to light a fuse and the murder of Bert McCartney sees it is well and truly alight. Kitty Litter’s invented a logo for Gerry Adams’s forthcoming visit to the US. Brainster’s been following every bend in the road. The Connolly Column comes from a party loyalist, who believes the IRA must end attacks on innocent people.Other bloggers having their say include: Armed Liberal, Crooked Timber, another Beowulf, Heretical Librarian, Upper Left, Sierra Sanity, and New Sisyphus. Not all of them have obvious axes to grind.

We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.

Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.

If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
