RTE: Radio, Telefis, Empty pockets

[Henrys Fonda]

I see that Rory McIlroy is RTE Sportsperson of the year. Though I have no issue with him, is it just 'copy and paste' with the BBC equivalent award??

No, they were different people nominated for each award.

But but Rory has a penis, times are changed

I always thought the Virgin gig wouldn't last, his style wouldn't be suited to such a commercial operation where the presenter has to fit in with the existing formula and the constant ad breaks don't allow any room for a presenter to put his own stamp on his show.

If he'd got a gig with one of the BBC radio stations he'd stand a better chance of making it.

I thought he was better on the radio than the LLS where he basically made the show unwatchable with his misery slots etc.

RTE should be closed down. Time to start a fresh with a new state broadcaster.

State broadcasting is an anachronism, including having to pay a license fee. And really it's not State broadcasting nor public service broadcasting but broadcasting formed to the whims and politics of its staff.

He's down to Talksport, it might well be GB News after this.

RTE providing some top class television this Christmas.

'Christmas in Kimmainham, Marty Whelan joined by Garron Noone and the Dublin gay men's Chorus, with a special Palestinian surpise'
