Bill Donohue received a sincere letter of thanks from Sr. Mary McManus of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary in Blackrock, Cork. Her letter was a testimony of the gratefulness expressed by all the sisters at the convent for our work in debunking the film “Philomena.” She expressly thanked us for defending Sr. Hildegarde, who was defamed in the film.
Sr. McManus worked in the Mother and Baby homes in Ireland since 1948, and stays in touch with many of the parents of their children. They should never have been maligned by these Irish, English, and Hollywood bigots.
