RTÉ admits paying Tubridy €345,000 more than declared

Someone mentioned the Photographer. She was on Moncreiff, I didn't listen just read a report.

She seemed to think she had it in the bag, as she doesn't know what will happen next. I expect a visit to the WRC (Workplace Relations) Who else applied for this position? and was she gifted it each year it was advertised?

The board of RTÉ did say in the committee that they felt decision being pretty much "fait accompli", is this across the board in RTÉ. Where a decision made is how it should be always.

I feel that the Executive producers of FC requested this in 2011, it was grant every 3 years after that with little to no questions being asked with in RTÉ.

I think Kevin Bakhurst might consider a full reshuffle in RTÉ. I don't think it is good to have a producer languish at FC for 15 years.

Kielty should totally distance himself from Tubs. Tubs sending him best wishes prior to the Late Late return and again texting into the Evans radio show in the UK the other day is simply a desperate effort on his part to keep his name to the fore in the media. There was nothing genuine about it whatsoever on Tubs part.

Documents obtained by the Irish Daily Mail show former chief financial officer at RTÉ Breda O'Keeffe eventually conceded in 2020 that the broadcaster would meet Mr Tubridy's salary demands 'half way'.

RTÉ wanted Mr Tubridy to take a 15% cut, or a drop of €75,000, reducing his salary from €495,000 to €420,000 at a time when RTÉ had announced major cost-cutting measures, including its highest earners taking a 15% pay cut.

But in October 2019, Mr Kelly's team wrote to RTÉ saying: 'For the elimination of any doubt, Ryan is not prepared to contemplate any reduction in relation to agreed payments sums that arise during the extant contract.'

Big exclusive reveal in the indo today. Tubridy is going to some book festival in Iceland and is very excited about it. Anybody know if there is a way we can be alerted if these big news stories break?

Just because someone wants to meet halfway doesn't mean the other person is willing to meet them halfway. Think they eventually agreed an 11% cut after much wrangling. Apparently, there's 500 pages of emails of wrangling negotiations.

He’s not gone away ya know.

And the image of the Instagram post shows 105 likes. Perhaps he should get some lessons from the other RTE influencers. There's a bit about a pensions gig and then the article ends with some news about Kielty and how his first LLS had almost a million viewers. Puts that 105 likes for Tubridy's post in some perspective.

Still no sign of Tubridy's "Big Podcast" that one of his relatives mentioned a few months ago?

Wonder if the booking was made when Tubridy still had a career in Irish broadcasting and a daily radio show? It is fascinating how most of the coverage of Tubridy in the Irish media no longer mentions those job offers. Now, he's on the Alan Partridge circuit.
