(Note: Released Weds May 17th)
Until yesterday our guest, Karen Sugrue, was best known for as an Reproductive Healthcare Activist and an organiser with Together For Safety. What you didn't know was that she had been successfully sued by Iona Institute CEO, David Quinn, for a defamatory tweet, for which Mr. Quinn received €8,000.
Karen joins us to talk about the ordeal, the laws as presently constituted, the proposed changes, how her cancer treatment made her more resiliant throughout this process and why she didn't sign the Non Disclosure Agreement that Mr. Quinn proposed.
