RTE Radio 1 awarded best international stattion

Einhard

I know that it's probably not the done thing to praise RTE around here, but achieving an international award of this stature in successive years, and beating off competition from the Beeb and ABC in Australia is praiseworthy IMO. Not to mention 28 individual awards. So congrats RTE.

This has to be a extraction of urine surely ?

I checked the organisation that bestowed that gong and to be honest it looks like the sort of body that you pay to give you an award. Check the list below (something for everyone)

We had this argument the last time RTE advertised they won so many international awards, "One for everyone in the Audience Awards".

Or just maybe RTE radio 1 is internationally recognised as being a great station. That's a bit too obvious I suppose .......................

I was just wondering why nobody had mentioned these international awards in this section of boards. RTE weren't the only Irish stations to get awards at that. Dermot and Dave from 98fm got best comedy duo and 4FM got some award as well but I don't remember what there's was.

Mad props to R1, well deserved.
