Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

Geraldine O'Leary knew about the barter deal for the 75k and was instructed by Dee Forbes to organise it but she didn't know it was to conceal RT's money - hahaaa.
Geraldine is still using the word “grand” instead of “thousand” lol.
I didn't know.. didn't understand.. the DG told me to do it
How are these people even employed?
We are back to the DG did it.
Joe is! Admittedly he's not directly involved but is very much the elephant (excuse the pun!) in the room with regards how much he draws from RTE via NKM. I think it was a no brainer editorially to take RT off air and can't really see the logic of Verona Murphy's approach that even though RT is still being compensated for doing nothing, somehow he would also have a case against RTE for reputational damage and termination of contract (Even though the insinuation made yesterday is that his deciding to finish his LLS role effectively brough and end to his existing contract). I'd say Verona from her days as the haulage rep is hyper litagion sensitive so, if it were her she'd be running to a lawyer for any slight on her character.
Veronia Murphy TD seems to be a bit of a 'political refugee' judging by her wikipedia page.
People of Ireland you’re paying for people’s World Cup adventures
I know nothing.
0.25/10
Lyle, LYLE!!!!
How are ya now?
Same here.
I wouldn't expect a CFO to be down in the nitty gritty everyday stuff, they have team(s) for that. The systems are in place and anything that smells off in the financial area should be picked up on straightaway and brought up the line, to the CFO.
No wonder the whole thing is such a mess and that they could do as they pleased with all that lovely money 🙄
Champions League final?! What about flights and hotels?
Barter account is a good old fashioned slush fund.
I forgot Rory was still there
The boom never stopped at RTE for execs and their faves
A bully is a fairly apt description. She wouldn't let them get a sentence out without shouting at them again. Even Mattie wasn't that bad.
"Slush Fund" doesn't reflect the magnitude of the money slushing around.
Siun, Ronan and the interim DG are awful.
Sure Alan Dillion is a 'lifelong learner'

Everything but the All Ireland medal it seems....
That Ryan will sue .
She's a bit of a bully.
What a waste of time that was but sure Verona got some shouting and pointing fingers in .
Barter account is a slush fund. Simple as that
The 50 million in credits mentioned here, sorry its behind a paywall.
jesus the cost of them rugby tickets!
Lol. Ok, if you really think that despite all of the available evidence, I think you'll find you're in the minority.
Isn't he suppose to be out of contract or something now?
Yeah wtf is she sticking up for RT here over the culture of scrimping over ordinary workers and paying ' the talent'way over what everyone thinks they are worth ?
This barter account is corruption.
Jesus this PAC is embarrassing, toothless courtroom where 99% of those doing the cross examination are completely thick. And playing to the gallery.
Okay, Alan Dillon is a bit improved from yesterday.
Collins now trying to redeem himself by having some figures. 😀
