And , as in so many high profile Public appointments these days, men need not apply
Tinky-winky issues?!
Dont worry , schools are back soon
Claire Byrnes got a sauna. How very Scandinavian
Haven’t heard the show since Sarah was acting presenter, but from all reports I’ve heard and seen she was very good. So why do RTE giving the gig to a presenter who’s previous Monday night show turned more tabloidish as it went on?
Sarah doesn’t via RTÉ spout out state propaganda bulletins. Claire evidently does.
Spot on
Sarah McI has been excellent. She’s very likable and does a no-nonsense interview.
CB has enough gigs on RTE, but is clearly their darling.
This is a mistake.
+ 1 Sarah has been a breath of fresh air. Maybe that’s the problem.
Sarah McInerney needs to be allotted the week end slots currently occupied by Brendan
O Connor send him packing to the Independent, McInerney did some excellent interviews
and is far better presenter than all the rest of them put together, However certain
apprachnicks in RTE do not like intrusive questioning
I’ll a-miss a-Sarah…she was very a-thorough.
Sarah was great, Claire gets flustered too easily.
think that’s what put her over the line
Ha, probably.
Eamon Dunphy should have got the gig.
“Claire Byrne beats out Sarah McInerney”
is it known that sarah mcinerney actually wanted the slot? it’s a bit of a blah-time, i’d have thought
They did the same with Six One: took a presenter who had been doing a good job and replaced them with a longer term ‘name’. Nice to see that it is a meritocracy over the airwaves.
Sisters are doing it for themselves. Thanks D4orbeshirts
RTE should have gone full self immolation and given the slot to Mary Wilson
wilson is absolutely useless. painful to listen to. two bullets in a gun…stalin hitler …wilson….you get the idea
