Her name is Lisa
Can you please call her Lisa, not Murphy. It’s so disrespectful
Would you lot get over yourself, Lauren mentioned her name at the start of the article! This corona malarkey must be gone to your heads.
@Aoife Ni HAodha: Yes and she should have referred to the lady by her first name through out the article.. It has nothing to do with the Corona “malarkey”! Maybe you need to get over yourself?
@DeeM: Oh climb back in your box
@Aoife Ni HAodha: Ha ha.. Is that all you can manage!! That comment says more about you than me! Have a good day y’all!!!
@Aoife Ni HAodha: So if I called you McHugh all the time you would be ok with that.
Gardai are seeking assistance from the public in tracing Lisa s location . It should have been written like this not Murphy. Hope she found safe and well .
I hope and pray that she’s safe. How awful for her family. BTW the reporter is just following the general rule or guideline in prose by writing her full name first and thereafter referring to her by last name.
@Deirdre Boyle: Not appropriate in this instance.. Journalist needs to use her cop on!!
@Deirdre Boyle: if she didn’t want to use her full name throughout, she could have referred to her respectfully as Ms Murphy, as one would when writing in a formal subject matter such as this
@Deirdre Boyle: what rule is that, one she made up herself, general rule in prose, never hear such b…t
@JimmyMc: I thoroughly agree with you. Some old fashioned respect would be welcomed.
That is a terrible headline, have some respect
No-one ever read a journalistic article where the subject was referred to by their surname?
Or noone ever cheered on a football player by their surname?
Would yas get a grip and focus on the important things.
@thomas patrick: Time and place!
@thomas patrick: there are occasions when respect is warranted and others where implied familiarity works just fine. It’s a style issue appreciated by many and OK to state so.
@DeeM: exactly… so focus on the important thing of a missing woman and not the fact that she’s referred to by her surname…
If I go missing, call me by whatever name you like as long as at it gets the message across.
@thomas patrick: duly noted paddy.
@thomas patrick: Think you picked me up wrong there hun!! Nah… Wouldn’t be bothered calling you by any name.. If you go missing… Mind yourself!!
The article must have been edited I cant see what your only commenting on
This is an informative article written by a journalist and stranger to the family. The purpose of the article is to seek information and help the family find out where this lady is. The comments on this are like the kind of nit picking, infantile stuff you see on Twitter. I hope Lisa Murphy is found soon, stop demonizing the writer of the article for absoutely nothing just to score points. Ridiculous.
Well after all your moaning on how the article was written, Murphy was found safe and well
@Aoife Ni HAodha: u are RUDE
@Aoife Ni HAodha: couldn’t let it go!
@Gina Carroll: did I ask for your opinion, No! Do I actually care what u think? NO
@Dermot N Killian: neither could Elsa!
@Aoife Ni HAodha: Oooh you’re a nasty person… Crawl back under that rock that you emerged from before you get stomped on.
@Aoife Ni HAodha: Oooh nasty, nasty person… I was actually going to call you a lady.. But you definitely ain’t one of those!!
@Aoife Ni HAodha: God even the fact that you refer to this lady as Murphy in your last comment, when this lady was found… says so much about you. You should stay off the comments section of the journal or any other social media platforms where you can leave a comment. You are an absolute disgrace!! This lady’s name is.. LISA MURPHY!!
She’s been found safe and well
@Richard o Rourke ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: be careful, you might get attacked for saying She
@Aoife Ni HAodha: I see this. Some people need to relax a bit. At least LISA was found
Stay safe guys
have your say
