Because we were giving Tubridy under the counter payments we’ll cancel the BBQ for regular staff members
id say its more that the management would be afraid of going anywhere near the staffers, especially where theres booze involved.
Like any office so.
Put the skewer down
Maybe it’s yere one channeling her inner nazi again.
This fella needs to be given some airtime urgently.
I agree. A lot of ANGRY people on the INTERNET like to SHOUT about things they haven’t a clue about.
It is really because he held himself out as being righteous and was prone to pontificating.
If Pat Kenny did it, it would just be par.
Also people wondering how much of this was going on.
The salaries are obscene though, especially in the context of none of them being any good.
Michael Lyster, Bill O’Herlihy, Pat Kenny, Joe Brolly, Eamon Dunphy, George Hook, Prime Spillane and Marian Finucane, even fucking Tom McGurk were great broadcasters.
If you’d said 20 years ago, Brendan O’Connor would’ve had the career he has had. Sarah McInerney, Claire Byrne, Darragh…they’re news reporters. There are no stars, no one can talk, the manner of the likes of Joanne and McInerney is atrocious, they play the antagonist but can’t back it up. Pat Kenny is a cunt but could go toe to toe with anyone. Next man up, Matt Cooper!
Rip it all up and start again.
Wouldn’t think there’s anything illegal here. But he did a secret deal with RTÉ that would have given them more clout to seek pay reductions from their other staff and look for increased licence fee payments. Tubbers can’t have been unaware that that was the effect of the arrangement. Legally fine. Morally questionable.
Looking for the extra bit of coin they don’t really need seems to be the downfall of so many of these top Fianna Fail lads.
No wonder @Boxtyeater went AWOL with FF royalty being dragged through the mud
Miriam also squeaky clean

This is their most entertaining output in years.
Yer man Kelly is doing some job rehashing the same statement across his biggest earners. And then on the flip side he has Yatesy speaking out against it. He’s like one big puppetmaster at the moment
I believe cast of Suits were in NK’s offices all last Thursday and Friday.
I would agree with you that he has done nothing wrong here legally but more so for the underhanded way it was handled. Pretending he was taking a paycut like everyone else in RTE and yet he had a little side deal. Also I think there is a lot of payback for the pontificating and lecturing done during covid
Yatesy could slide in there for a nice occasional gig if someone has slipped up.
“I feel you - our listeners and viewers - have been badly let down”
What a load of me hole.
