Somerville loves U2. But Ireland...

One U2 story you didn't read in the Boston papers this morning amid all the hype over the band's visit to promote "No Line On The Horizon": Turns out that horizon is in the Netherlands. TheWrap.com reports that many folks back in Ireland are supremely pissed off at U2 for moving their corporation offshore in 2006 to avoid taxes. It could be "the biggest PR disaster of their career" for the do-gooder band, said the Irish Independent, one of the media outlets railing against the move. "Irish newspaper commentators and charity organizations have denounced it as exactly the sort of tax dodge multinational corporations engage in to increase their profits at the expense of Third World nations where they conduct business," sez The Wrap. Bono, of course, fired back.
