The Government is ruling out calls for Media Minister Catherine Martin to take questions in the Dáil, even after her appearance tonight in front of the Oireachtas media committee.
Media Minister Catherine Martin revealed the full extraordinary timeline of the breakdown in the relationship between the Government and RTÉ last Thursday at Tuesday’s Media Committee.
Things didn’t start well in this week’s Home of the Year (RTÉ One). Amanda Bone was dressed in brown, with her hair up and a sort of Aer Lingus-style scarf. You just knew there was going to be trouble.
Catherine Martin “regrets” that Siún Ní Raghallaigh resigned before they could discuss issues the Media Minister had with information about exit payments she received from the former RTÉ Board chair.
Dana Erlich, Israel’s ambassador to Ireland, has criticised RTÉ for giving what she calls “a free pass” to Palestinian representatives in the broadcaster’s coverage of the war on Gaza.
