RTE 1: 'Today' with David McCullagh

Not a good strategy kg … its very handy to know the background of where these chancers spring from.

You had Mullooley on CB this am getting stuck in over the handling of the storm aftermath.

It would not be surprising if he pulled a few strings in RTE to get a lot of airtime and keep his profile high

in the electorates mind. Small stuff like that is important , not suggesting one spends too much time on stuff like that but

sometimes following the trail can reveal a lot when you join the dots

It's pretty transparent here really. You'll hear plenty about a contributor's/presenter's history/connections if they are critical of certain sacred cows. A bit like flicking through a colouring book and seeing only selective dots joined.

Not all torn new one's are equal, so to speak, if you tear the right ones you'll be left alone.

Item on Trump firing public service workers in America which has nothing nothing to do with us and never a debate on RTE salaries.

She also linked Peadar Tobin's call for greater controls on public money with Elon Musk in order to dismiss his intentions.

This is our media.

It's not marketed as a programme solely about 'us'.
It is a programme about current affairs and has always featured items of interest from around the world.
US politics doesn't hold a whole pile of interest for me but I understand it does for many.

Things are bad here but at least we don't have Trump. That seems to be the RTE angle during his last term and we're already back into that mindset.

It's going to be difficult to be an opposition TD in this Dail. If they mention anything mildly similar to Trump, people like Claire Byrne will compare them to Trump.

This lady isnt giving much advice on how to start using weights. Literally her advice for every query is visit your physio before doing anything so basically she is trying to drum up business for physios!

He was terrible! How many times did he use the phrase "taking stock"? More like laughing stock.

SF on housing stats: lie lie lie, the government knew it was lie

Claire: just be careful about using the word lie

SF: lie lie lie lie LIE

Even Claire mixed up Comreg with the CRU when discussing ESBN there with Simon Harris

She's trying to up the panic on Trump.

Sinn Fein's position all over the place on Trump.

I think most Irish people outside of twitter bubbles care first and foremost about our economic prosperity and not Gaza. That doesnt mean we approve of bombing etc but we care about ourselves first.

He does get his message across though! If he was softly spoken, then he would not sound as outraged as an opposition TD
