Madam, - Are we going to have to ban our children from reading The Irish Timesbecause of foul language? "Asshole" in a headline ("Putting manners on the rat race", Life Features, March 27th): did this just slip through or does it signal a plunge to a whole new level in terms of what is considered acceptable rather than downright rude?
The media set standards. The Irish Timeshas responsibilities. I am deeply concerned about what this signals. - Yours, etc,
