Bizarre detail
[edit]Forgive my frankness, but it's a poor thing that her life and career can be summed up in little more than half a dozen sentences (with no mention of family, upbringing or interests outside journalism), yet we're given a bizarre detail like the model and colour of the car she was murdered in.
Please, I beg, somebody who knows her story well do a better job than this. This is the sort of entry people make jokes about. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.71.249 (talk) 01:24, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- Amen. There's so much more to this individual than her shooting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.146.50.17 (talk) 18:12, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Removed unproven link and related text
[edit]I noticed in the text it states that she attended trinity college.The link leads to answers.com,which is hardly qualified proof, and is highly unreliable. Also, a book titled" Veronica Guerin, the life and death of a reporter" written by Emily O Reilly (which is reliable) contridicts this unproven statement — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.97.54.72 (talk) 23:12, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
