    What media black-out, it got a lot of coverage on RTÉ and Irish Times, did not look at other outlets.

    The Irish times and the RTE websites have nothing on their front pages about it.

    Front page news? A vote of no confidence which was highly expected to happen and fail, happened and failed.

    And what do you mean by "It's all a little bit too quiet for my liking."
