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

You're absolutely right. One who didn't plan on being caught based on his first statement weeks ago.
Victory loves preparation. RT should have been prepared for being caught out as A PUBLIC FIGURE.
Thats what his "team" is for.
Everyone has a plan until they get HIT. - Mike Tyson.
The yolks on you!
DELICIOUS Mr. Stampa, everything is going according plan.
Well, say what you like about Ryan Tubridy but, at least, he’s not a homophobe.
Like a certain Mr T you have egg on your face.
What a bizarre comment to make.
It's like you are saying Ryan might be this and that but at least he's not a homophobe.
I know it's a while ago but I just got around to listening to the Brolly pod.
I really,really dislike Brolly (the main reason I avoided it)
There's nothing new in it but he does a great job laying it out.Even though I had heard all the bits and pieces i still found myself shaking my head at parts of it.
NK is the real pantomime villain,aided and abetted by the top brass in RTE and a horrible culture.However Tubs is the face of it and complicit aswell,its unconscionable that he would ever be back on the air again.
For anyone who hasn't listened to it give it a go.
Why is it that you feel compelled to update us here about the goings on over on the [your words] cess pool that is twitter?
I have not seen anyone reporting back from 8chan or other forums that are well known for berating people, what is the point?
Lefty arguments - essentially gaslighting.
Gaslighting is the subjective experience in which an individual's perception of reality is repeatedly undermined or questioned by another person.[1][2][3]This term, derived from the 1944 American film Gaslight, entered colloquial English usage in the mid-2010s.
For what reason should he get access before me, unless it's to influence the final product or get his pr in order.
I thought that cesspit was Boards 😏
Bakhurst has RT's back - KB's the cleaner to re-install RT to the populace consciousness.
That is KB's sole purpose to restore balance to the institution so it may maintain inertia.
KB is a brand protector.
The RTE culture created Ryan. RTe /Montrose/Ryan are cut from the same cloth and represent the same thing. An insular and isolated and as far from everyday reality as a remote 7th century sea island.They are all cut from the same cloth. The same. No accountability and answerable to non one except for some "plebs" in the mainland called the government who facilitate and enable this incompetence by threatening millions of mainlanders with jail if they don't pay....What a sweet deal!.....RTE is living in such a bubble and so divorced from mainland reality that... The intentions may be good and kind, but when you are miles out at sea where rules don't apply...there is a disconnect and weird stuff and behaviors start to take root and fester...
Propaganda.
Also note RT is on the left of frame.
We read left to right.
Watch R Davidson in pics - always on the left. First thing we read.
Yeah, he claims SOC phoned him to ask, " what the he'll is going on"
As if to say, "why are they picking on you, you've done no wrong, you're one of the good guys".
Again I maintain she never phoned him, or offered him her place to stay at in London.

@[Deleted User] do not post in this thread again
There might be more coming out from RT.
Planting stories about non-entity "stars" being "seen together" in tabloids is a trick as old as the films, so it's relevant to the topic at hand that RT and NKM and you are making as much random, widespread and scattergun noise to try and rehabilitate the situation back into a profit stream.
Let's not forget the selfie with Paul McCartney that he was told not to do but still did it
Said it on the LLS finale thread - how much did they pay Paul McCartney to say something...
It has been explained already.
And added to all that was the hypocrisy of incessant whinging that they needed to screw more money out of people via a license fee increase, to demonstrate this they cut budgets for kids programming, threatened to take lyric out of Limerick, all the while spending tax payers money like it was going out of fashion
Licence fee due here and it's just going to sit on my desk for as long as possible, pending confirmation that Mr.Bakhurst and Minister Martin are 'draining the swamp' of excessive expenditure at RTE including the termination of Mr.Tubridy's contract.
Save yourself some money. Buy a box of matches and put the license demand out of its misery.
The risk with a licence fee boycott is that RTE exploits the situation to beg for more government money or get something mandatory brought in like a communications tax.
The number of xeets about this has collapsed. Very few articles in the paper about this yesterday.
The Tubs component of all this was a complete nothingburger. The new DG will have to deliver on some reforms of RTÉ though. He comes with a big reputation so I’m confident he can.
Brian Stanley of SF asking Noel what he used to sell for Cadbury’s was when it became apparent to the majority of Irish people that the story has jumped the shark. 7 hours of politicians looking to make a bit of a name for themselves, but most of them just demonstrated how stupid they were.
Considering the new DG has had to already recuse himself from the Marty mobile because he benefitted from free lifts in said mobile shows that he is the wrong man for the job.
According the Oireachtas Media committee, that is all RTE ever did year on year. They demanded extra money but failed to produce answers for where all the money was going. Griffin said that the TDs were waiting for many answers long before the Tubs scandal broke. They even published salaries that were 2 years old.
Good news. The licence fee will be done away with.
Bad news. It will be replaced with something worse. A broadcasting charge.
At least if you don't have a TV, you don't need a TV licence (sort of). There'll be no getting away from the broadcast charge. It'll be deducted at source, either from your wages, or your social welfare.
What matters is that the cost for running our national broadcaster are significantly reduced. It's currently a black hole. Lower salaries for the "talent", less waste, no illegal accounting, fewer junkets, less scope for garbage shows dreamed up by NK/Talent.
