Journalist Ed Moloney died at age 77. He was a major chronicler of the Troubles with deep research into paramilitary groups. His reporting emphasized the power of individual stories to illuminate complex political violence. His investigative work predated the current era when books such as Say Nothing become international bestsellers and television adaptations. Moloney conducted pioneering interviews and documentary research in a much different political atmosphere, often facing restricted access and heightened sensitivities. His career established benchmarks for detailed, source-driven accounts of paramilitary activity and the human stories within the conflict.
