    It must be a slow news day if the TV3 news team consider the dangers of fish pedicures to be headline news :confused:

    Compare that to RTE who have actual serious and relevant news in their early news lineup :rolleyes:

    TV3 current affairs in general isn't at the races with the exception of Vincent Browne. It's oriented toward making money from morning to evening, so you have pseudo-Joe Duffy Mark Cagney in the morning frothing with stupid indignation, the 'loose women' at Midday talking about smacking kids, and we used to have Ursula Halligan at 5pm on a Sunday asking Trevor Sargent about his potato garden.

    The news falls into that general trend. In the days before Xpose it even had Lorraine Keane on doing a 'celebrity goss' segment right there in the latter half of the programme.

    RTE gets a lot of flack, but if you relied on TV3 news you'd get a very bowdlerised world view indeed.

    I'm sure the Xposé team think it's headline news...they're probably all headed for the clinic in the morning...
