RTE latest news: Ryan Tubridy’s secret Late Late Toy Show battle (Dublin Live)

Dahl was a nasty antisemite and general all round racist who kept his editors very busy.
wow, never heard about it before this comment..

“In 1983, against a backdrop of widespread criticism over Israel’s invasion of Lebanon a year earlier, Dahl told the New Statesman: “There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews. I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere; even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”
In an interview with the Independent in 1990, months before his death, he described himself as antisemitic and railed against the “Jewish-owned” media.
He told the publication: “It began in 1982 when the Israelis invaded Lebanon. They killed 22,000 civilians when they bombed Beirut. It was very much hushed up in the newspapers because they are primarily Jewish-owned …
“I’m certainly anti-Israeli and I’ve become antisemitic in as much as that you get a Jewish person in another country like England strongly supporting Zionism. I think they should see both sides. It’s the same old thing: we all know about Jews and the rest of it. There aren’t any non-Jewish publishers anywhere, they control the media – jolly clever thing to do – that’s why the president of the United States has to sell all this stuff to Israel … ”
All round racist is a bit of a stretch but certainly a self confessed anti-semite for sure
For Fox Sake
I won’t be able to watch Ryan do his ‘exploding with POSITIVITY and KINDNESS’ thing. I think he fancies himself as some sort of guru & has indeed become insufferable.
I’ll be giving it a miss.
He’s a charisma free bore who got his position by virtue of who and not what he knows.
Because entertaining he most certainly is not.
Sheesh – you’ve just described the cohort of dullards I ignore on here because I’ve watched cheese growing mould that’s more interesting.
They’ll be waddling along like penguins soon to prove my point …
Don’t worry. We believe you about the cheese. Being mouldy, it goes well with your carpet, half empty beans tins etc.
Furries petition Ryan Tubridy to wear a different outfit as they find this distracting while trying to watch toy show with their kids
