A new booklet The Myths of the Magdalene Laundries has been published by the American Catholic League.



Based on Martin McAleese’s sanitised report into state involvement in the laundries, the booklet claims to examine “the origins of the many myths that have surfaced”.

Bill Donohue (above), president of the American Catholic League, says:

Virtually all the horror stories that have been told—nuns cruelly torturing and sexually abusing “fallen” women—are lies. Worse, Irish officials, such as the current prime minister, Enda Kenny, continue to misinform the public, even in the face of indisputable evidence. Media outlets, the BBC and the New York Times, in particular, refuse to discuss the McAleese Report, leaving the impression that the falsehoods told by Peter Mullan in his propaganda film, “The Magdalene Sisters” (top) offers an accurate picture of what happened.

Copies are available to the public for $5 per booklet.

$5 you say?

Will we flock.
