Bill Donohue Catherine Corless, the local typist from Galway behind the "mass grave" hoax, must be furious. She has every right to be. Just last Friday she spent two hours listening to Ireland's Minister for Children, Katherine Zappone, wax emotional about the Mother and Baby Homes. Corless was all jacked up awaiting the release of the [...]
Reports that a "mass grave" was found containing the bodies of 800 children outside a home run by Irish nuns recently dominated the news in Ireland and England, and became a big story in the United States as well. As it turns out, the nuns were unfairly condemned by an array of politicians, pundits, and activists. [...]
The Catholic community lost two great persons in February, Michael Novak and Norma McCorvey. He died on February 17, and she passed away the next day. "Michael Novak was more than a brilliant and dedicated Catholic, his range of scholarship was astonishing," said Bill Donohue in his statement to the media. "Theologian, sociologist, economist, political scientist—he [...]
William A. Donohue When it comes to women, men have learned to be careful not to sound sexist or condescending. If they are perceived as such, they will be stigmatized. There is one exception: they can speak about traditional nuns in a vile way with impunity. This is not limited to men. Most importantly, it includes [...]
Rick Hinshaw Melissa Ohden, You Carried Me: A Daughter's Memoir (Walden, NY: Plough Publishing House, 2017) Melissa Ohden's story begins with an attempt to kill her in her mother's womb. That is what brought her to Washington in September 2015 to testify before the Judiciary Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives. She spoke along with [...]
No media outlet has done a more consistently accurate job reporting the "mass grave" story than the New York Times. Not only did it not fall for this bogus story when it first surfaced in 2014, it actually poked holes in it. Its coverage in 2017 has also been flawless. Kudos to the Cleveland Plain Dealer [...]
Irish Central is the most irresponsible of the mass grave theorists in the U.S. On March 4, it ran the following headline: "Tuam Mass Infant Grave is Confirmed, Now What Are We Going to Do About it?" In fact, no confirmation was given. The article cited the "significant" number account, but offered no proof that the [...]
Almost all of the media in the U.S., England, and Ireland are promoting a fake news account of a "mass grave" containing the remains of nearly 800 children. Here is why we aren't buying it. The official statement by the Mother and Baby Commission, issued March 3rd, makes no mention of a "mass grave." Why not? [...]
Paul Redmond is chairman of the Coalition of Mother and Baby Home Survivors. He was born in one of the homes in 1964, and was adopted 17 days later. He has become the leading activist involved in the search for answers to what actually happened in these homes. As with many others associated with this cause, [...]
The number of human remains found outside the Mother and Baby Home in Tuam does not come close to 800, but that there are any is disturbing. It seems logical to think that those who are truly concerned about these deceased children—some of whom were unborn—would be pro-life. But among the elites, they are not. They [...]
