Iād just like to clarify that in principle Iām against the death penalty but my opinions wavers when confronted by that Tubridy chap on the TV or the radio.
Evening lads, Mr Rock or whatever his name is has been on at me to sign up for ages now, so here I am. Thanks to farmerinthecity for the kind wordsā¦much appreciated.
Bandage, you are indeed correct that the GPās core vote historically comes from 20-35 year old females and youād be amazed at how many young ladies are partial to a bit of Pat of a Friday evening! Whether Green voters would watch the Late Late or Tubridy is somewhat irrelevant though. The point is that RTE as a national public service broadcaster is failing to deliver on its mandate: āRT, as the national public service broadcasting service, is dedicated to putting the audience first. It will continue to provide radio and television programmes, in Irish and English, which are of the highest quality, universally available, and which are independent and impartial in accordance with constitutional and statutory obligations.ā
But itās not just RTE. The print media in Ireland continue to remain pretty much impervious to issues like climate change etc. Take a look at the Guardian or even the Independent any day of the week and youāll more than likely find a front page story on waste reduction, climate change, emissions reduction etc etc. Not in the Irish press though!
Legging it for the Home and Away express DART now so Iāll reply in greater detail later but I canāt say Iām happy with your decision to support Bandage over me.
Iām insulted. I was just going to say that she generally has a lot of interesting things to say. Didnt want her to see that as I know that she is quite a modest person and would not want to see someone praise her in such a way
I have to say I agree with that part anyway. The Guardian has an environment link on the top of its website every day, a supplement once a week and the Independent has at least one top story on climate change every week. That never happens here for some reason.
