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

It started off bad tempered and hasn’t got any better. There’s a lot of angry men who simply cannot acknowledge that The Tubmeister General and NK did very well today in the face of sometimes deeply rude questioning (Imelda Munster in particular made a show of herself).
The thing about outrage is it burns out quickly. The all-day anger merchants will then move onto something else.
He thinks he fooled us all . He fooled no one with his whinge fest and but but but V de P and little children and little old me being only for the people .
He can fool some people but most will see through this bull****
His reputation which was mentioned was the trust the viewers have in him to do a good radio programme. I’m not for one minute suggesting he’s not done good things and helped people, but that wasn’t been asked.
BBC covering it now no hopes of him been able to go over there now
Tubridy must be one of the people in the country so bad at maths that they can't calculate how much money they earn.
He was feeling sorry them by his standards - came in last minute and only had read some of the emails.
I personally feel exhausted having watched that all day long, I feel I should somehow put in an invoice for the effort.
I don't really understand that. what do you mean?
Can they be called back or was this totally there call. I say Mr. Tubrity loved the limelight while Mr. Kelly wanted out after 1 hour from this morning
You can’t lose something you never had.
"Yes, the salary is enormous, I understand that, but that doesn't affect my soul," says Ryan Tubridy, when asked by Senator Marie Sherlock if his integrity has been damaged.
Tubridy and Kelly. The two innocents. What a pair.
That was some cringe fest by Tubs just there he is sorry now because the game is up .
Like fcuking Oscar acceptance speeches now.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
All bluster and no fight.
Tubs is giving a miss world speech.
Round of applause !
Here comes Richard Boyd Barrett ready to fire the bullets while stating he is just doing his job.
RBB - it was an organised deception, and questioned the emails with the 75k. First mentions of the 75k was by Noel Kelly. The negotiation meant that the pay cut effectively did not happen - and had a meeting with his client (Tubridy). It looks like pushing against everything to mitigate against the pay cut
Kelly - it was a third party negotiation with RTE
RBB- the FIRST mention of the 75k was you
Kelly - I was responding to RTE point 4 etc
RBB - it does not look that way
RBB - why was the contract not signed? On etc etc
RBB - mentions massive pay gaps in RTE
(Eugene Murphy (S) took over questioning.
Tubridy - it has all changed now, I hope it will be a new world order - wants to be part of the change/catharsis of RTE.
Tubridy Wants to take the word 'talent' to be taken off the contracts because he hates that word
--
Eugene Murphy (S) - is it a three card trick? Or shady deal? Do you regret not being an employee instead of a contractor?
Kelly (exasperated) - I kept asking RTE could you please inform us when the salaries were published? Half an hour notice given to me - and they did not make the changes
And with that Noel Kelly and Tubridy are released back into the wild again...
They really did lick their holes for most of the day. Pretty sure half of them were starstruck.
OMG
They are being allowed a farewell swansong as if Tubridy is hosting a show!
I'm not blaming them at all, I'm blaming the absolutely useless bunch of 'lawmakers'!
That's it,TUBS absolutely wiped the floor with them!
Talent
Oh shut up you insipid man.
I think he is trying to come across like Joe biden
"No one's better than anyone else". Except when it comes to being paid, that is.
..
The only way RTE can move forward is without these snakes, RT and NK, and the executive, to build something new.
Their time is done. Shady deals no more.
Tubridy is insufferable.
Tubridy is going to fix RTÉ, and hates being called "the talent". He must be working on a new book.
this would make you puke
Am I watching the Late Late?
