Geraldine Kennedy (born 1 September 1951)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ms. Geraldine Kennedy )〕 is an Irish journalist, former politician, and the first female editor of ''The Irish Times'' newspaper.〔Encyclopedia of International Media and Communications, Donald H. Johnston, ISBN 0-12-387670-2〕 She was a Progressive Democrat TD for Dún Laoghaire from 1987 to 1989 and worked for several Irish newspapers before serving as political editor of the ''Irish Times'' from 1999 to 2002 and then editor from 2002 until 2011. In 1981, Kennedy's telephone, along with those of two other journalists, was tapped by former Minister for Justice Seán Doherty. The revelation in 1992 that Charles Haughey had ordered the phone taps led to Haughey's resignation as Taoiseach. ==Early career== Kennedy studied at Dublin Institute of Technology and began her journalistic career with a regional newspaper, the ''Munster Express''. She moved to the ''Cork Examiner'' after less than a year, but spent only a few years there before joining ''The Irish Times''.〔John Horgan: Irish media: a critical history since 1922. Routledge 2001. ISBN 978-0-415-21641-8〕 On the foundation of the ''Sunday Tribune'' in 1980, Kennedy joined it as the paper's political correspondent. The paper's publisher, John Mulcahy, had become familiar with Kennedy when she had contributed to his journal ''Hibernia''. When the ''Tribune'' briefly ceased production, Kennedy moved to the ''Sunday Press''.〔 Early in 1987, Kennedy successfully sued the incumbent Charles Haughey-led Fianna Fáil government for illegally tapping her phone. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Geraldine Kennedy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
