Sir, - In your issue today (January 31st) the following statement is attributed to an unnamed source. "We made a genuine bid but we got no response whatsoever from Irish Press. " The "we" apparently refers to an American consortium. No bid of any description was made to the Irish Press by an American consortium. If your reporter is in any doubt about this matter she should return to her source to ascertain the date on which the proposal was made and the nature of the proposal. - Yours, etc.,
Chairman,
