Mr Bakhurst confirmed to us: “Joe Duffy has made it clear he is not looking for a new contract when he finishes this contract. You have to ask him. I don’t want to start talking out of school.”
When asked by us what Joe’s future plans were at the station, Joe said that while he had nothing to add to Mr Bakhurst comments, he said on air last June to listeners that it will be more than likely his last time he will negotiate with RTE.
Kevin!
Kevin!

I’m sure if it made a lot of money like Riverdance they would have shared it out.

There’s a lot of oh “the board were never consulted” going around.
Did the board not notice the big massive fucking musical and ask a few questions?

450 grand redundancy for a role that wasn’t made redundant. A great little country.

Fraud squad, revenue and CEA should be gutting the place rather than this punch and Judy crap at committee

Bakhurst seems like the right man for the job, takes no nonsense, AK47 style.
Bakhurst is a company man, like the rest of them.
He’s happy to drip feed bits of information out there, rather than full disclosure. The €450,000 figure had to be dragged out of him.

Would love to get shafted like that
The CFO paying herself a redundancy when she wasn’t even redundant is surely fraud

It just seems like they had no governance rules at all. She was probably entitled to it once she said she could give herself the cash. It reminds me of Berties mate kiely fleecing the crc.
100%. If another organisation was behaving like this RTÉ would, rightly, hound them. This drip-feed, where ever answer has to be beaten out of them, is what will doom RTÉ

Ah shtop .
Bakhurst fancies himself as a hard man,
I suspect he’s no better than what preceded him
