Imo, it detracts from the authoritative account of an item that I would be used to, anyway.

Fine for something like Spin or those other type stations that 12 or 13 year olds listen to but I thought Today FM had a different target listener. Or used to have a different target listener I suppose.

Cooper says so "this happened today" and the newsreader says "thats right, this did indeed happen today" God be with the days when the content was strong and interviews would run over until after 5 and Cooper would just cut to news headlines with Laura Byrne.

That's maybe 26 minutes out of 60 minutes of radio. Shocking. I know ads are a necessity, but c'mon. Now to be fair, it's much the same on Newstalk and Radio 1.

You might not always agree, but you’ll never want to miss a Word."

It's gone vastly down hill though and tired, the last word is too bloody predictable and gift grub is shocking. There's nothing good on Irish radio at the moment, bar Moncreif tbh. I have changed to Breakfast republic on the car in the mornings though.
