    Never watched dancing with the Stars in my life. Just a response to the thread title. Her morning radio segment (on 2fm is it?) is painful guff.

    I'd love if Peter Casey was doing Dancing with the Stars.
    She'd probably Tweet that Peter told her he didn't know what a Tango was.

    Have people considered just ignoring the crap instead of constantly complaining about it here?

    Why not just stop watching or contact RTÉ? Or just ditch the TV licence altogether? Getting annoyed won't change anything.

    Jennifer is attractive, funny and gets paid to talk on the radio or in front of a camera. Haters gonna hate.
    I'm not saying I find her the most attractive, or the funniest person alive, but she is well entitled to any of the roles she gets as far as I can tell.

    It’s illegal to not have a tv license.

    You forgot Kathryn Thomas. I think Jennifer is pretty annoying too but the venom directed at Vogue, Caitriona and Kathryn is just bizarre. And they try to find stuff wrong with them. It's total desperation.

    And even if you pay the TV licence, you don't have to watch any programme that they're on.

    My only issue with Kathryn Thomas is all the shouting and yelling she does.
    She reminds me of angry school teaching!

    https://www.rte.ie/about/en/how-rte-is-run/2012/0221/291618-the-license-fee/
    Why are there ads on RTÉ?

    The majority of RTɒs activities are of a public service nature. The cost of providing these services, however, exceeds the amount of licence fee revenue which RTÉ receives. As a result, RTÉ engages in commercial activities to bridge the funding gap.

    It sounds like they just combine their funding and it's not separate.
    I'm sure there has been years when they couldn't secure as much ad revenue but I've never seen them cut back on entertainment shows because of it.
